I have a show up at Morton College in Cicero (comes down this sunday).  There is a good mix of work with 1-2 images that I have never shown before.

I have some work in a group exhibition “The Photographic Experience” at the Preston Contemporary Art Center in New Mexico that will also be published in Photo Technique Magazine in July.

I have a piece in a show at the Wright Museum of Art in Beloit.

And next month I will be in a group show “Chicago Project IV” at Catherine Edelman Gallery in Chicago.  The opening reception is July 15th (also my birthday) and the show goes through September 3rd. Other artists in the show include Matt Austin, Justyna Badach, Jeremy Bolen, Dan Bradica, Troy Flinn, Lenny Gilmore, Wm. Bradley Johnson, Bill O’Donnell, TJ Proechel, Charlie Simokaitis and Shane Welch.

I had the pleasure of hearing the Artists talk last night at the MoCP for the opening of their new show PhotoDimensional (through April 19th). The show deals with the translation of 3D objects into 2 dimensional Photographs (or vice versa).

I particularly enjoyed the work of Katalin Deér. This was first due to her sculptures that incorporated photographs, but I really love that she used concrete within her work. Anyone who can convince a museum to allow them to pour concrete on the wood floor easily wins my admiration over.
