Yesterdays’ Omens

September 11th | Yesterdays’ Omens | The Fine Grind | Little Falls, NJ, USA

It was an expedition into an unknown land called New Jersey. A yellow school bus left Manhattan transporting a group of New Yorkers to the opening. Quite an experience! A huge thanks to Peter Freeman for making the commute possible. Eternal gratitude to John Pirozzi for installing the artwork. Special thanks to amazing Jessica (event manager) and Rhonda and John (the owners), it was great!

Watch video of the installation

Stiev Selapak in The New York Times

Cambodians Take Back the Lens

This is wonderful the young Cambodians artists are speaking up and not anywhere but in The New York Times. Great jobs from the Art Rebels…

“Significantly, Sa Sa is an abbreviation of Stiev Salapak, or “Art Rebels.” The gallery takes its name from a group founded in 2007 by Mr. Vandy, a passionate 27-year old who is trying to defend photographers’ interests in an increasingly competitive and still foreign-dominated environment.
