Where To Go and What To See

Despite the pre-Independence Day four-day week, several galleries are putting up interesting exhibitions this week. The Pace/MacGill Gallery in NYC is actually opening on July 4 with Larry Fink's holiday-appropriate images of the Democratic presidential campaigns. Robert Mann Gallery, also in NYC, is putting up an interesting show that explores the "formal repetitions and shared motifs of photographers working with commonplace genres such as portraiture and commercial still life during the first half of the 20th century." And at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, Virginia, a show examines the historical landscapes of Peter Henry Emerson.
