I was going to go back today but we are having a minor hurricane. All day. Not one let up. A Sante Fe gallery owner of Scheinbaum & Russek LTD. .9 mi (about 3 minutes) from the La Fonda Hotel where most of us are staying. So maybe I'll catch their act bring a few friends they offered to drive me over but it looks like walking distance to me. =============================================== Mark, phone before you go to S&R. Their web site says 'by appointment'. But it's an easy walk from the Plaza. All the venues I mentioned in my recent list are also walking distance from La Fonda (or the Plaza), meaning less than a mile. Prices at the galleries I mentioned vary quite a bit. At Monroe you can get quite a few non-vintage things from 'name' photographers for under $1000, where the same shot in a vintage print might be $15-25,000 (for a real famous one). They call the non-vintage prints "estate" prints. My friends were considering an "estate" print by Ruth Orkin for ~$1500 framed. You might also see what's showing at the College of Santa Fe. They have a decent visual arts program and a nice gallery space. They have shown Salgado and HCB there in the past. You need a ride for that one though. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085
