I waited for Amy Crehore to review the movie I made last week at her opening and decided not to post it online till now (though it was up on YouTube since last Saturday, I simply didn’t tell anyone about it).  I brought a friend, Nancy, with me and met many of Amy’s friends and admirers of her art.

Here’s the movie

Amy Crehore also put some photos of the opening on her blog in a post titled Photos of the NYC Show.

And that reminds, me, I’ll have to go soon and pick up my two paintings that are still hanging at Heart And Soul in Williamsburg since early May.

It was nice meeting Amy Crehore last week, I got to spend 3 hours with her in a diner in Chelsea, just talking - we’d known each other virtually for a few years, but hadn’t met till then - and then I saw her at her opening two days later.   I hoped to go with her to a museum while she was here - I’m sure that’ll happen next time she visits - hopefully for another show.

I was glad Amy Crehore had a show here in New York for a change, most of her stuff shows in Santa Monica, Los Angeles or Las Vegas - but that’s a whole different art scene and I believe the Art World is a lot more real and substantial here in New York - I know that’s an opiniated point of view - but I bet a lot of artists, writers and art critics would agree with me.
