Foley Gallery

the reason I went to Orchard Street last week was to see these new images by Wyatt Gallery  ( the person,not a place ),at the new Foley Gallery in the Lower East Side.

A very elegant group of photographs of subway advertising wall the collages of happenstance  and serendipity from multiple pasting and repasting of bill boards .
Wyatt's point of departure is only to record those that have nearly ben totally scraped
away.There are no witty and surprising juxtapositions found in the layers of ripped paper and paste. Wyatt  shows us bared and scared walls that have scratches and scrapes

The over all feeling is a retelling of the abstract expressionism movement
