I'm an art photographer interested in urban landscapes.  An upcoming, 1-wwek exhibition will be opening on the Lower East Side @ A Gathering of the Tribes, 285 East 3rd Street, 2nd Floor. The curators are Janet Bruesselbach and Steve Cannon, a long-time figure of the New York art scene and supporter of the works of emerging artists, photographers, writers and poets. 

The opening reception will be Friday, January 18, from 6:00PM to 10:00PM.  There will be jazz pianist Richard Clement performing that night.  Refreshments will be served, $3.00 donations at the door. Here's the link:
