William Wegman: Fay

Retriever by William Wegman, 1994

It's not to late to see William Wegman: Fay at the Allentown Art Museum in PA.  The show "celebrates the artistic partnership of Wegman and
his beloved canine muse, Fay Ray. For ten years (1986-1995), their
lives were creatively entwined, resulting in a brilliant body of photographic
work for which Wegman and Fay are especially known.
Their odyssey as partners in art and in life is explored in a rich array
of photographs, 
many of which have rarely or never been exhibited publicly."

Show runs until September 7, 2008.

Also, the museum is offering a special Dog Days Promotion through the end of August.  Visitors with admission receipts from the Allentown Art Museum receive $2.00 off the exhibition fee for Elliot Erwitt: Dog Dogs at the James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, PA.  Very cool.

See some of my favorite Elliot Erwitt photos here.

    I don’t miss living in Pennsylvania… but this makes me kind of I wish I was there to see this!

    IMO, one of the best photographers of all time.
    I also have FOND memories of watching the dogs on Sesame Street as a child, so may be very biased!
