A friend called to tell me about an interesting show of cyanotypes in
Tribeca, which I will probably miss because I'm going to be out-of-town
for the next week or so. I said I'd post it to this list so others in the
area could see it (the space is apparently shared with steam bath/massage
parlor & publicity has been low-key), and perhaps even persuade
out-of-towners to drop everything and come visit (snow is plowed).In any
event, Friend collated info and forwarded to me as follows:
