Mia's 39+ Exhibit


I went to see Mia's 39+ exhibit at the Abecedarian Gallery in Denver today. It was the last day of the exhibit, and I was very glad I went. The photographs - one taken each day during Mia's 39th year - were excellent. All were very strong and very interesting images. And the format - a continuous series of images displayed on accordion style books - was also very impressive. I remember that Roddy, the photography professor at the University of Denver, tried to arrange a field trip to her store in Boulder one quarter to learn about her bookmaking process, but the timing didn't work out. Next time, I hope it will - her books are wonderful.
