Vivian's first solo show opens tonight in Chicago. I wish I could go. I actually could go if I really wanted to: hop a plane at the Westchester airport and meet my sister at her place in Printer's Row and head to the Cutural Center (a beautiful venue, by the way). It's a snow day, so I wouldn't miss work. Hmmm. Well, the show is up until April so I will make a point of seeing it.
My sister made a really interesting point about Vivian's work. She said,
"It seems fitting that she was unknown, this completely original, astounding talent, hidden among all the ordinary people she photographed, whose own astonishing uniqueness she saw and showed in her photographs."
