Am Back From Rosebud, Plus AGA Rejection

Back in Edmonton after a wonderful week in Rosebud. Updates to follow.

Got a rejection letter as expected from the AGA Biennial people, same same rhetoric in the letter, been there read that many times. They have not returned my USB stick as promised, hopefully that will happen soon. If it not returned as promised I will send them a note asking why.

I will swing again next year at the Bienial. Hopefully in thie 2017 accepted Biennial artists there will be some photography, preferably documentary or portrait work. More photography would be a a good thing. The AGA has low attendance probably because of there promotion of abstract conceptional type arty farty crap exhibitions. Lets see less artists(?) exhibiting stuff like cleaning products on tables, or toilet paper being unrolled while walking backwards in a green forest (work that I have seen at the AGA in the past year). Put some stuff into the gallery that will actually draw some attendance, put work in that people might actually want to see.
