  • Pop Dog Collages by Michel Keck

    Day 5 of my Holiday Gift Guide, and I intended to present an array of dog prints.  But then Michel Keck’s work showed up in my inbox this morning, and I couldn’t get past them.  I’ve featured may pop artists and many collage artists, but she is the first pop collage dog artists I’ve found.  I really like her work and I thought you would too.

    Her open edition prints range from $35 -$399 depending on size.  They are available here.

  • 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.
