Hi Lloyd,
... most museums will look at any photographer's body of work if it is
presented well. Let's ask ourselves what the curator is looking for.

December 29, 2006, from Lloyd Erlick,
That's an interesting comment. I think I need to communicate with
curators more.
However, I have attempted to do so in the past. I figured I'd try to give
(give! donate gift) some of my work to local institutions that would be
appropriate for my work, such as the Toronto Archive. A very nice man
talked to me. He certainly came across professionally, and clearly
understood my desire. He said the archive would accept material such as
my portrait photographs in print form, as long as the subjects were
celebrities!
Other local (tax supported) institutions like the Art Gallery of Ontario
and the Royal Ontario Museum were uninterested.
None of these were concerned about how the presentation looked. They did
not care to look.
Commercial galleries (such as the Stephen Bulger Gallery here in Toronto)
are not interested in my prints because portraits don't sell well to
third parties.
regards,

Shouldn't we be exchanging packages of our work for the purpose of
archiving each others' prints, on a 'just in case' basis?
