Whoop dee dooo - 12 November 2017

It has been almost three years since I posted anything, and a great deal has changed. Jack Lucido and I finished "Wish You Were Here" (The Robert C. Bishop Story) in 2016, and it was presented at film festivals and at the Western Colorado State University (Gunnison), and the Grand Junction Art Center, where both had an exhibition of RCB's photographs.





Alas, we lost Robert "Bob" Bishop this year at the respectable age of 96. You can view and download the film at Amazon Prime Videos.

Jack is off to new film ventures, and I'm both trying to get an exhibition, film and podcast off the ground - and writing.....
One of the articles I've recently written was about Victor Landweber's American Cameras (1983)http://www.landweber.com/about.htm  and I'm writing an essay about one of his other series:  http://www.landweber.com/Artist%20to%20Artist/index.htm

Many other changes....which I will later write about in an appropriate fashion....

Marking 3 Years

I moved to Trinidad in mid June 2020, and opened 221B Gallery at the end of 2021. I've had the pleasure of presenting work from Steven Benson (Orlando, Florida), Hans Droog (Trinidad, soon St. Louis), Jo-Anne Green (Boston), Sheigla Hartman (Trinidad), Bonnie Lambert (Helena, Montana), Bobby Neel Adams (Bisbee, Arizona), Robert Welkie (Los Angeles) and Jennifer Korsen (Los Angeles - who also created a mural on an exterior gallery wall). Work from Ken Abbott (Asheville, North Carolina) goes up tomorrow.  Raven, my faithful companion for 9 years who traveled with me to ten states, passed away in April.    10 week old Tyche arrived in the household at the beginning of June, and siblings Anton Chekhov (male tabby) and Ava Gardner (female calico) are not thrilled about having to baby-sit a third dog, and have to train another from the beginning..... Things are rapidly changing in Trinidad with an expansion of businesses downtown, a new Hilton about to open, Fishers Peak opening new tra

Relocation!

Trinidad Lake State Park Time for a change of scenery, from Coeur d' Alene, Idaho, to beautiful Trinidad, Colorado. I've not lived year-round in Colorado since September 1977, when I left Colorado Springs for Los Angeles. I've been following the Colorado Creative Industries for about two years, and have been extremely impressed by the State's Creative Districts - most specifically the Corazon de Trinidad . So, while I decided last year to relocate, the whole process was sped up by the events which have buffeted lives world-wide in the past four months.  Trinidad is in the southeast corner of the state, about equidistant from Denver and Albuquerque. It has a rich history, a magnificent downtown Historic District, and is home to the newest (42nd) Colorado State Park - Fisher's Peak. Amtrak runs the Southwest Chief from Union Station in LA to Chicago, and Trinidad has long been a stop along the route. It is also located along the I-25 corridor, and abut
