AIPAD at the Armory
After going to the Paris Photography Show I am a bit spoiled. It was the best show I have been to, hands down. AIPAD is evolving. The armory show used to be mostly older galleries with classic photography but now there is more than a handful of the photography galleries that carry contemporary artists.
Here were my highlights. Vik Muniz at the Edwynn Houk Gallery. I have been following his work for years. Have yet to pull the trigger.
Martin Luther King marching for voting rights by Steve Schapiro at the Monroe Gallery of Photography. This is some of the older works I was talking about.
Katrin Korfman photo of dancers in a square at Kopeikin Gallery.
Photos of food trucks by Jim Dine at the Robert Klein Gallery.
Doug and Mike Starn from Hackelbury Fine Art.
Claire de Virieu from a Parisian Gallery of a rare light snow in the Luxenbourg Gardens.
Brooklyn Bridge by Abelardo Morrel at the Edwynn Morrel gallery. Another photographer I have followed for years. Finally pulled the trigger here on this piece.
This is a photo with LED lights behind it that creates images that are walking across the screen. Jim Campbell at Bryce Wolkowitz Gallery. I really love this.
This is a great piece by Nino Migiliori at Keith de Lellis Gallery.
I love these. We own a few. Inge Morath at Danziger Gallery.
Lots of Gordon Parks. The foundation just released a new group of photos.
Nice to see this new work by Clifford Ross at Steven Kasher Gallery.
A little bit of old and a little bit of new. Definitely a great annual event.

Glad to see Monroe Gallery there.They used to be Soho Triad on Grand Street when I lived around the corner.I bought my first Margaret-Bourke White piece from them ages ago.Sid is great, a friend and a mentor and so amazingly knowledgeable.The piece btw still sits over my desk.
one of my favorite all time photos from National Lampoon. Couldn’t get away with that one today
yup the ethos of humor has changed.i think the ethos of language as well. I find myself more intolerant of intolerant language as time goes on.
