Thank you so much for your comment about Manhattan with Johnny. It is a very complex photo and I feel it has all the energy of being in "the City". I must confess I need to update all the resent exhibits and awards this photo has be a part of since my last post in 2012. Thanks again!

Curator’s Comments:

 

Manhattan with Johnny appears a richly layered cacophony of color and text with serendipitous results. The glowing semi-transparent red and blue hues presents an illuminated highway of cultural branding and competition as they attempt to cancel each other out in the picture plane.  I particularly like the vertical movement some of the interrupted lettering provides, expanding the viewer’s entry into the space.  I also find it interesting that the darker, comparably less active bottom section stabilizes the image, and serves as a beautiful introduction of order and grounding containment into visual tumult and unrest.  I concur with Karyn Mannix that this work is reminiscent of a bold Stuart Davis piece, with the complex adaptive movement inspired by jazz and urban composition.  It’s also nice to see that while this image was posted some time ago it has been exhibited at multiple venues.
