A "show and tell" of this weekend seems appropriate for the Monday Show and Tell. The gang had a super time in the Berkshires. It was great to go to the mountains, eat good food, relax, attend a conference, think, and see lots of contemporary art--and not all photography! It was truly an eye-opening experience for Cowboy Steve, as you can see below from the below image selection. From top to bottom, we have the upside down trees at the entrance to MassMoca, video art on display, and the truly amazing rice installation. On Sunday when Bruce gave a photoshop talk at Digital Days, Steve also hung out with a famous photographer by the initials of HH, who just also happens to like country music. Can you guess? Check out the new pics for the Cowboy Collaborative Assignment #2 by visiting the CC Flickr page.
I thought I'd give a little update on our friends at the Cowboy Collaborative. This endeavor has really taken off! Since launching less than 2 weeks ago, we already have over 100 photos on the CC flickr site, 6 posts on the CC blog, 13 active and accounted for cowboys, 1 assignment and 1 pending, and a brand/logo in the works. We have 3 orphans (I have one and Jenn two) ready to adopt and no duplicates yet! Below are some selections from the first assignment, "take your cowboy to work." It's great great to see more of what everyone does, that is, as seen through the eyes of Fisher Price "little people."
Pics from Assignment #1. On the left: Cowboy Steve had a busy week, installing a show and going to 2 openings in 2 days. Here he takes a break at the afterparty following Henry Horenstein's Close Relations opening to have a beer and enjoy the Boston skyline from a beautiful loft. On the right: Marlboro Man is on his way to work to assist Jenn as a projectionist at the local art house theatre in Rochester, NY. He also accompanied Jenn to her job at the George Eastman House

We're getting saddled up and will be ready to go soon. Keep checking back with the Cowboy Collaborative blog and flickr page. We'll get an assignment once a week on the blog (you can read the CC history there too) and you'll see the results on flickr. My main hombre, Cowboy Steve, has long been neglected and is ready to dust off his hat and take his rightful place again in front of the camera. Giddy up!From cowboycollaborative.blogspot.com
