Dave Jordano

Another one of our New Directions 09 submissions, Dave Jordano's images tell the story of Prarieland.

Reaching into his backyard, Dave looks at the rural environments of Illinois, finding the unanticipated culture on the edge of a major metropolitan area. Quirky, full of life and eccentricities, or certainly a life so different from what most of us see or live, Dave shows us a slice of ourselves we don't often see, or know exists.

Dave makes a living as a commercial photographer, and his fine art work reflects his desire to showcase who we are, with sensitivity, humor and vibrant color. He is a 2008 Top 50 Critical Mass winner, and Prarieland will be shown at the Silver Eye Center for Photography in Pittsburgh, PA this year.

I was honored to see his name in our submissions for ND09, and while he may not have fit George's list, his work certainly made mine.

Lydia Panas on Flak Photo


It's a big day here at wall space - an Artist's Reception AND a highlight of Lydia's work on Flak!

In honor of her artist reception this evening at the gallery, It's a Matter of Perspective, Mr. President is flying across the internets. See the show on the gallery's website.

Have you heard of Flak Photo? If you haven't you are missing out on a solid collection of artists and ideas, as well as your daily dose of photography. As Andy has said on his site - "Flak Photo celebrates the art of publishing contemporary photography online." The site is produced by Andy Adams and highlights new series work, book projects and gallery exhibitions from an international community of contributors.
Sign up for a daily email and get a great image in your email box every morning. I get a visual treat each day.

Here's a look at today's front page showcasing Lydia's great work.



Please join us tonight from 6-8pm at the gallery, rain or shine, and chat with Lydia about her work.
If you can't join us tonight, here is a link to an interview Lydia did with Humble Arts by Julie Fishkin about the visual stories she tells, her process and ideas.
