Today we had the pleasure of releasing Paris, our fourth edition from photographer Gregory Krum on 20x200 and are also excited to announce that he'll have an upcoming solo show at the JBG opening in May 2010. Mr. Krum first exhibited at the gallery as a Summer 2007 Hot Shot, and since then his work has been included in Mixtape, Summer Reading and X Marks the Art.

Sara wrote of Paris in today's newsletter:

It's easy to give this image a minute to study the tangled coils of ropes and hose and foliage, alive and dead, scattered and floating, and the next thing you know, you too are scattered and floating, a glance having gleaned a full ten minutes of your time. For me, ten minutes turned to a half hour as I scoured the web for houseboat rentals on the Seine.

So many of Mr. Krum's photographs share the same dreamy stillness of this very image. It is as though he ambles to faraway places on his tip toes, looking for serene and beautiful moments to enjoy and capture without anyone knowing he was ever there to begin with. Paris comes from the series Sailors' Valentine, a quiet and anticipatory set of photographs of house boats in Paris.

Although Gregory's first two editions, Chateau Pool and Nymphenberg are completely sold out, his two most recent photographs, New York (Peony) and today's Paris are available in three sizes. Pick them up now, and plan to stop by the JBG in May to see Gregory's images up on the walls.
