  • Colonial Meeting Houses of New England  Book and Exhibition:

     
    Looking out window at cemetery, Holderness My Colonial Meeting House project continues to gain momentum, and I spent considerable time this past year making new images. These have been added to the Project Locations section of the project's web site: www.colonialmeetinghouses.com. I am making good progress with the project, and am in discussions with publishers. The traveling exhibition has been listed with GuestCurator.com. I expect the photography to be completed in 2008. I will be attending FotoFest in Houston in March, where I will be promoting the project to publishers, museum curators, and collectors.

    Limited edition prints are available, and a large amount of new work has been added; click limited edition prints for more details.

    For those who care to listen, I have added short sound bytes to most of the Colonial Meeting House pages. This music was recorded for the Video Essay about the project. It is based on early American hymns by William Billings (1746 - 1800), and performed by Christopher Drelich. Billings was from Boston, and is generally considered to be the first American-born composer. He was very active in writing simple, unadorned music for the Puritan church, and I think it complements the artistic beauty of the Meeting Houses.

  • Current Show: Empty Spaces at Harvard's Three Columns Gallery:

     
    View from outside Three Columns Gallery I currently have a solo show at Harvard University's Three Columns Gallery in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Directions can be found on their web site. Admission is free, and it is open daily. The show will be up until February 15, 2008. The location is a really wonderful space.  
     
    For those unable to see the exhibit, I have compiled a Virtual Tour of the show.
