Howard Greenberg Gallery is one, if not my most, favorite gallery in NYC. The gallery is specialized in photography, and most of the exhibit I saw here are of street photography. Their core is on history of modern and contemporary photography spanning from masters like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Edward Steichen, Bernice Abbott, Paul Strand, Edward Weston among others, as well as more recent artist like Walker Evans, Vivian Maier, Marvin Newman, etc. The gallery is located at the 14th floor of the Fuller Building on 57th Street. It has a main gallery space, and one on a side for more contemporary exhibits.

Fantastic gem — just found it after a nytimes article on Meyerowitz mentioned his work was being shown there. The collection was fantastic, and even the excuse to check out the Fuller building would be worth 5 stars in my book — one of those rare great fun things to do in nyc where you’re away from the mobs!

Someone out there has great taste and a lot of money — a perfect combination in my opinion — because almost all the photo’s that I would have bought at the Howard Greenberg gallery are sold. Avenue du Bois de Boulogne, Paris, 1911 by Lartigue — SOLD The Dolly Sisters, 1927 by Lartigue — SOLD Avenue du Bois de Boulogne, Paris, 1911(2) by Lartigue — SOLD But I did say almost… so who are you? Your taste in photography is in line with mine and I’m hoping you are a Unilocaler and this message finds you. I suspect those photo’s went for many thousands of dollars — how about spending 8 thousand more? I have an offer — you buy me «Bijou of Montmartre», 1932 by Brassai and I will rave about you on Unilocal(I never said my Unilocal could not be bought). Have you read my Unilocal?You will be famous among my three fans. That has to be worth a measly 8K. Plus, you have no idea how wonderful that photo will look on my wall. So, you would also get the knowledge that you gave an original work to someone who is so poor she didn’t know a recession was on, how do you feel it when you live it all the time? I’m not offended to be thought of as a charity case — use me on pamphlets. I will frown in pictures with bare walls in the background. I will be happy to provide all the sad stories about how I dreamed of owning art but my humble existence kept me away from anything but posters and postcard reproductions, until you — my art angle — swept in and gave me the gift of an original Brassai. I think this is a way to give back to the world(or at least to me). What do you think? I hope to hear from you and in the meantime you will find me at the Howard Greenberg gallery enjoying the Jacques Henri Lartigue: A New Paradise show. They extended it until Oct 31st and if I can’t own any of the work I have a few days more to visit it.
