Peter Funch

"Communicating Community" from the series "Babel Tales" by Peter Funch 51 x 23 inches.

One of the many people I got to meat during last weeks Armory Show madness was photographer and gallery owner Peter Funch. I got to take a quick look at his prints at The Volta Show but I wanted to spend more time with them. Hopefully they will be up again in New York.

Peter is a cofounder o f V1 Gallery in Copenhagen, Denmark. Their website has a nice gallery of Peter's Babel Tales. Peter was also selected by Getty Images in their New Photographers 2007 collection of image makers.

New York Times: On Miami's Art Scene

Reflection of a visitor to the Rubell Family Collection in the Wynwood Art District is seen in an untitled work by Anselm Reyle. Chip Litherland for The New York Times.

In Sunday's New York Times Travel Section there is a article that not only got Miami's art world right but mentioned some friends of mine. Have a look The Miami Art Scene: The Beach Party Moves Indoors. Congratulations Jen Stark, Frank Wick, Scott Murray at Twenty Twenty getting a huge write up, Naomi Fisher and Jim Drain and many others. Its a great write up that is surprisingly on point with where the spots are while avoiding all the South Beach clichés of the standard Miami Travel article.

Hot off the mass email today Humble Arts Foundation has announced the 31 selections out of over 1000 submissions for the upcoming show “31 Under 31: Young Women in Art Photography.” The exhibition opening reception on Saturday, March 1st at 3rd Ward in Brooklyn and the show will stay up for the month.

I went through the Exhibiting photographers and found as many websites as I could. They may be showing newer work then what they have on their websites but it was still nice to take a look at some new voices as well as the friends and fellow SVA Students and Alumni that made it in. If any of these websites are wrong please let me know and I will correct it.

Congratulations to all.
