Stinkerbell’s plea to one of her favorite Texas troubadours, Lyle Lovett, to come to our new show, Henry Horenstein: Miles and Miles of Texas. The opening and book signing is this Saturday, September 12, from 5-7 pm (but we’re open all day to any famous singers who would like to come by early).

She’ll be selling Texas themed bracelets as well (with a few others thrown in for good measure). We’ll see y’all Saturday!

I hate having a reason to share this photograph by Henry Horenstein ahead of our show that opens next month. Dolly was the best of us.

Artists Keith Carter and Cathy Spence were in the gallery today to see our current exhibition, and it was fascinating to listen to Cathy point out how she thinks Keith would have printed this image by Henri Cartier Bresson. They both agreed it’s a fantastic print as is.

The print just to the right of Keith is the contact sheet of his seminal image, Fireflies. Always a great day when these two make the drive up from Beaumont!

One of these is the iconic America Gothic by Grant Wood, and one is a friend and me at the AG house in Eldon, Iowa. Good luck figuring out which is which!

I picked the wrong sized pitchfork, and I’ll never forgive myself. Thanks, Iowa, for a great trip!

The opening of Thirty Years: The Legacy of John Cleary Gallery was phenomenal. So many of the gallery’s best friends showed up, including Barre, shown in picture 1, who originally hired me, 27 1/2 years ago! Also pictured is Burt, who was at the grand opening, bought a photograph that night, and has been through thick and thin with both John and me.

2: People loved our themed cocktail!
3: A tough angle to capture, courtesy of Zan Zeller!
4: Checking out the show.
5: Comparing our two Kertesz Melancholic Tulips, no doubt!
6: I had to get mini beers because John Cleary always bought them!
7: When your daughter and a collector match.
8: Even my godmother came!
9: More matching styles.
10: Burt, Leslie, and Morris. The photography world in Houston wouldn’t be the same without them!
11: The ad John ran in Photography in New York when he first opened. We advertised in that publication for years!
12: Cheers to 30 Years!

Just had a very exciting meeting with a collector who wants to consign/trade some pieces. Each name is bigger than the next, each image is a knockout, and the condition is fantastic on every single piece. Her father started the collection, and while I didn’t know him, I wish I had! Case in point: he wanted to buy some Bravos so put his then 8 year old daughter in the car and drove to Mexico City to buy them from the man himself. My kinda guy!

Be on the lookout for new works by Kertesz, Mapplethrope, William Klein, W Eugene Smith, Larry Clark, and many more. Today was about as fun as is gets in the gallery biz!
