Ashes and Snow
The idea of a temporary museum made of shipping containers, canvas and things that look like really big paper towel roles is a good one. Unfortunately, after about three of the photographs at Gregory Colbert's (no relation to Steven Colbert) Ashes and Snow exhibit, the awe begins to fade. Pictures of people and animals (generally attractive people and animals in dreamy, ancient world /primordial sepia settings) feel a little Anne Geddes. The points are made once in photographs, then again in film and possibly a third time, again in photos. Maybe we're too cynical to appreciate this harmonious vision, but we found the whole thing could be done in about five photos. Also, they didn't sell seperate post cards -- instead you have to buy some $30 book. Not cool! We just wanted one to send to granma.
