GHG/Avedon/Clowns - Three Shows Opening Today and Tomorrow

Here are three shows opening tonight and tomorrow.

Visualizing Climate Change: The Work of GHG Photos, a show affiliated with the New York Photo Festival, opens tonight.  GHG is shorthand for greenhouse gases and this show intends to document the cause, effects and attempts at controlling climate change.  Check it out - I’m planning on going.

If you work in Times Square, you can also view the show at the Port Authority (42nd and 8th).  Wish I had know that since I walked by there last night coming from my friend Claudia’s MFA thesis exhibition.

Secondly, and this one I’m really excited about, is the ICP show of my FAVE - Avedon.  Avedon Fashion opens to the public tomorrow.  And bonus - Fridays are “pay as you wish”.

Lastly, my friend and neighbor, Jim Moore’s show Up and Clown opens tomorrow night as well.  Jim and I used to work together at TREC when I first started working in photography around 6 years ago.  This show includes photographs taken at The New York Downtown Clown Revue as well as photographs from the past 30 years.  I’m a bit freaked out by clowns in general (thanks Poltergeist), but will push that fear down and go after Avedon tomorrow.

Oh yeah, Jim also worked with Phillipe Petit on the famous high-wire walk between the Twin Towers on August 7, 1974.  His images appear in the award-winning documentary Man on Wire.
