Not to be argumentative, but I thought it was pretty neutral. We're 
extremely one sided here in the forum (and justly so <g>) but the 
real world isn't really there (yet).

This exhibit is more than just a digital photog exhibiting prints 
and claiming them equal...this is going into a whole new realm of re-
conceptualizing the work of a dead artistic giant and the author 
doesn't trash the concept...

he ends with a backhanded complement:

"These latest prints, beautiful though they are, will no doubt be 
superseded by further technological inventions claiming to extract 
still more signs of the artist's genius.

They will come and go. Technology isn't timeless. Evans is."


Anyhow, I sure wish I was able to get to nyc and see this exhibit.
