Slog - Comments on Seen at First Thursday http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/10/seen_at_first_thursday That's one of 100 9-by-6-inch intaglio prints in the series What Might Go Wrong by Jennifer Zwick. Her first solo show, at Soil through Oct. 28, is called I'm So Scared/It's All So Hard, and it's "about anxiety, awkwardness, and the accidental comedy of bodies, yours and mine." Here's her comical tribute to the continuous strangeness of breasts. It's called Hello. At Howard House, Matthew Offenbacher, Robert Yoder, and Sean M. Johnson are showing. Yoder seems to be beginning to admit photographic imagery into his abstractions (his tiny bits of photographs look more and more legible with each time...

Do the gallery owners allow journalists to take photos for use in their publications? I've sneaked a few photos of artworks I like once in a while, but always feel guilty doing so. Do galleries generally allow photos to be taken, or not?

Otherwise, half the workforce would have to walk all the way around the building. The segregation was in the neighborhoods, not the factory. Delorean was actually intended as an economic boon to reduce sectarian divisions through economic development.

Jennifer Zwick's prints hit the sweet-spot between funny and heart-breaking.

Different galleries probably have different policies about photographing work, and you can just ask at the desk. Generally, I wouldn't feel too guilty unless you're using the images for something commercial. Artists and galleries want artworks seen.
