Last week was a great week in spite of the all the different things going on.  Thursday I drove out to Minot and Minot State University for my opening of Concrete Abstractions (a collection of 24 photos of regional architecture).  During the opening I gave a short artist talk about the work and my interests in photography.  The next morning, I gave a lecture on the art historical influences of the body of work that ranged from Edward Hopper, Charles Sheeler to Ed Ruscha, and of course, the New Topographics.  It was a great to visit and mingle with students, meet faculty and generally see the work hanging.  Much of the work has never been shown before so it is nice to have it see the light of day.

Saturday was unexpected.  A friend offered us free to tickets to see Sir Elton John.  While I am not a huge fan, I wasn’t gonna pass up the opportunity to see a legend…especially for free.  He put on a great show that we followed up with a trip to Rhombus with friends.

And now its back to getting ready for my show at the Empire Art Center here in Grand Forks.  Another solo show.  Sometimes I wonder why I do this to myself.  Sure it looks great on the CV, it doesn’t feel the best amidst the craziness.  The Empire show goes up next Monday and will be a series of 21 small prints from the Visual Analogues series.  This collection of prints is largely all new (2011-2012) and has yet to be shown anywhere.  We are still contemplating an opening or closing reception…details to follow.

This week also marks a busy month of MFA grad shows at the Hughes Fine Art Center.  This week is Patrick Awotwe from Ghana.  His metals and tapestries are remarkable.  If you are in the Grand Forks area, please get over to UND to see the show.
