Bronx Opening

I'm having another show this week. I'll have 10 photos in this one, including 4 of the ones that I showed at ArtEroTica last month and didn't plan on putting out again. So come out and see them and hang out, I'll be there most of the night.

It should be a fun opening, and it's right in my old neighborhod.

The Seduction of Decay @ The ClockTower Salon
October 8th – 30th
Opening Reception Friday October 8th 7pm – 12 am


Gallery hours: 10am – 6pm Tuesday through Saturday

The ClockTower Salon presents The Seduction of Decay, a group exhibition of international photography curated by Diana Rivera, featuring the images of Salvador Angel, Emily J. Hara, Shane Perez, and Rivera herself.

The exhibition discusses cultural constructs of beauty, asking the viewer to re-evaluate aesthetics, while introducing them to an underground world of unexpected, forgotten environments. The work pushes the boundaries of the relationship between photographer and subject by accessing the forbidden, and juxtaposing the ephemeral with the enduring effects of time.

By train: 6 to 3rd Avenue/138th St., 4 to 138th St.

This won't be in the show, but here's a shot from the Park River Conduit in Hartford I took recently:
