AUGUST 9, 2003

[Jack Livingston and Ed Istwan set out on a day of gallery-hopping to kick off a new radar feature. They wanted to visit a number of venues and present their differing views in short statements. Lively discussions turned to grumpy discord and exasperated laughs. They went their separate ways and wrote their impressions. Here are the results.]

Montage Gallery-Federal Hill 410.752.1125

El: There was, like, a lot of art here. A vast accumulation of years and years of the varied and somewhat negligible taste of one guy, it seems. I actually liked some of the stuff here, which must ultimately say something about me.

JL: A good slap-dash expressionist painting by Maxine Taylor exuberantly holds the front wall; the side gallery is crammed with rotund landscapes. What year is this? Who cares? Check out the back room and talk to the owner. Energy abounds in this very idiosyncratic non-trendy place that relocated from Portland five years ago.
