A Gallery in New Orleans; was Contact Prints

2006-11-13 by Bob Michaels

I was A Gallery in N.O. two months ago. They lost almost all their
books but none of their actual prints. It still is quite impressive
for the amount of really high end work they have. It's one of those
"Weston? Do you mean Edward, Cole or Brett? Actually we have works by
all of them" kind of place.  

I must say that besides their inventory, Edward Hebert who is the
"photo guru" is very knowledgeable and informative. I felt like a had
an hour long one on one tuorial about individual photographers styles.
Interestingly, he's primarily a painter. Like Clayton, I escaped with
only a $50 book purchase. But it's a generally unavailable book of
Duane Michals photos so I was happy to get it.

Be assured I will be back there the next time I'm in New Orleans.
