[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]The July/August magazine "Photography In New York International" (www.photography-guide.com) lists 96 Exhibitions sites/galleries in Manhattan - 24 in SOHO/Tribeca, 50 in Chelsea/Midtown, and 22 in 57th st/Uptown. I've been to almost all of the SOHO galleries and found some terrific galleries there. Well worth the trek into SOHO. Exhibitions and Galleries throughout the US, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, Switzerland, and the UK are also listed. These are not complete lists, for instance, the Leica NY Gallery is the only Leica gallery listed.

Where is the <br>New York photo district?>><br><br>Hans,<br><br>The pro camera district in NYC is near the fashion and garment center area, <br>generally south of Madison Square or 23rd. St. Some call this the Flatiron <br>District after the building of the same name. Most of the pro camera shops are <br>located here, often several flights up in office buildings. Hansen, the Leica <br>valhalla is here as is Adorama and Duggals, the big custom processing center. B&H <br>Camera is a few blocks west. Walking around the district in the dusk you can <br>see strobe flashes coming from studio windo! > ws in lofts and office buildings. <br>The area is dotted with trendy expense account eateries. The majority of New <br>York's model agencies are located nearby. They can be found by noting the <br>migration paths of stunningly beautiful skinny women carrying hatboxes. Many of the <br>fashion photos you see in magazines are shot in Gramercy Park, an elite <br>private park surrounded by elegant late 19th century mansions. Gramercy Park is at <br>Lexington Ave. and 22st. <br><br>I had various offices in the area for about 30 years, usually within a block <br>of Gramercy Park. This district is one of the few places in New York where you <br>can walk around the streets with three Leicas hanging from your neck without <br>someone thinking you had ripped off a photo store or were about to catch a <br>flight to cover an assasination in some third world country.<br><br>I hope you enjoy your stay.<br><br>Larry Z<br>--<br>To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub! > .html<br><br><br><br> <br> =====================================================================<br> <br> Please note that this e-mail and any files transmitted with it may be <br> privileged, confidential, and protected from disclosure under <br> applicable law.
