Andrew Molitor gave one of my things way more attention than it probably deserves, and I’m flattered beyond any sense of reason or propriety. (And full disclosure, I know Molitor a little bit and am therefore predisposed to pretty much like pretty much anything he does. Anyway.) In his review, he mentions that my Eid …

Alex Prager – ‘Meet the Team!’
Meet the Team! is a sort of zine/catalog/exhibition guide that accompanied Alex Prager’s Farewell, Work Holiday Parties at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, November 21, 2020 – January 3, 2021. It’s somewhat different than Prager’s photographic and film work, but it’s also undeniably Prager.

They’re all designed by Matthew David Crowther, and I think they all came through Nathan Pearce. If Volume 1 is a sort of conversation between …
Sean Kennedy’s “Nature Connects” at the Botanic Gardens
