You won't want to miss this exhibit! It includes work from iconographer Cameon (Simeon Larivonoff), who curator Heidi Tucker has spoken with and has made the effort to bring his work to light for this show. Check the link to learn more about iconography, Cameon will be the subject of an upcoming Sundance documentary. I'm expecting some photos to post as well of the exhibit in general.
The first two images are of Cameon's work and the third of Leslie Clague's work.

The Pittsburgh Art Blog features selected pittsburgh artists and upcoming exhibits with photos from the artists and galleries. since the major press outlets do not go beyond a directory listing of exhibits, blogs are needed to promote pittsburgh artists and their work. the blog also calls attention to the inferiority complex of pittsburgh art and how it's perpetuated by the major players in town. Started on August 20,2007. pittsburgh area galleries and art venues are listed at the sister site www.PghGalleries.com.
the blog and website are volunteer projects from fine art photographer and pittsburgh artist advocate rick byerly.
just saw cameon's incredible icon work today
