A huge thanks to Ellen Thurston (Ellen’s Picks email and  artinhudson.org) and George Tsalikis of Inky Editions

Ellen says: Run! Do not Walk! to see the beautiful exhibition at the Davis Orton Gallery which is closing tomorrow (Sunday). (The exhibition is closing—not the gallery.)

The Gallery, at 114 Warren Street, is open from 12 noon to 6 pm.
There are two solo exhibitions—Smith Eliot, photo-based works and assemblages: Fragments and Little Boxes. (Really remarkable!) Patricia Lay-Dorsey, photographs: Tea for Two – and–A Portfolio Showcase: Tiziana Rozzo and Charlotta Maria Hauksdottir

George says: I agree! One of the best shows I have seen lately; in our area or in NYC.
Collaged negatives and labor intensive techniques; unique objects. Loved
the show.

Great Reception for Photobooks Last Night

Thanks to all for making our 6th annual photobook exhibition so memorable.  The books are amazing  and we’re so glad so many of the artists were able to make it including Andi Schreiber, Anna Leigh Clem, Nick Pedersen, Mara Catalan, Gilbert Rios, David Morse, Liza Macrae and Michael Hunold.

If the crowd was too daunting … this exhibition is up through December 20. It’s a not-to-be-missed show of photobooks for your collection or giving as gifts. The 20 exhibited in Hudson, along with 14 additional photobooks will also be shown at the Griffin Museum of Photography in January.
