at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center waiting for installation

The "Pioneers of Bushwick" exhibit at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center has been extended through May 25, 2013. The hospital never closes -  - anyone can stop by, 24/7, to view the exhibit which is in the main hallway across from the entrance. I hope you'll visit and leave a comment here.

Located at 374 Stockholm Street (at the intersection of Wyckoff Avenue and Stockholm Street), the Medical Center is just off the L train/ DeKalb station in the Bushwick area of Brooklyn. Here's a map - from there it's a quick 5-minute, 2-block walk.

Portraits will also be displayed at another local venue. Bushwick Community Darkroom will sponsor an exhibit at LOOM Gallery, 1087 Flushing Avenue, Brooklyn, NY from May 28th through July 01, 2013. It will be part of the Bushwick Open Studios 2013 art festival during the first weekend of June. The artist will be present at LOOM gallery during the art festival weekend on June 1st from 2-5pm and June 2nd from 4-6pm. Also, the public is invited to a reception/ talk from 6-9pm on June 17th.

Stop by! :-)

I didn't get to share the following kind attention for me and the Pioneers of Bushwick series on the BushwickDaily.com several months ago. It mentions an exhibition and those photographs with new images may be viewed at 3 locations throughout the summer. I hope you'll stop by to see them and leave a comment here. Please subscribe to this blog for updates. Thank you!

6 Bushwick Photographers We Love

. . . #6 Daryl-Ann Saunders

Daryl-Ann Saunders came to the attention of Bushwick when she created a series of portraits of longtime Bushwick residents to honor those that have lived in Bushwick since 1975 or earlier. The series titled Pioneers of Bushwick is on view through April 27 at Diana Jones Senior Center at 9 Noll Street.
