Edition Announcement #28- Carlo Van de Roer

Friday Surprise: Carlo Van de Roer + Gift Certificates!

Friday is upon us, already and not a moment too soon. It's been a heck of a week and I'm happy to wrap things up on a high note. Today I bring you two shots of holiday cheer: Carlo Van de Roer's delightful Untitled pool photo from his gorgeous Swim series and the introduction of our highly anticipated gift certificates.

Carlo's photo is printed on 100% cotton rag paper and is available in three sizes. It is the perfect antidote to the Winter weather that's been with us here in NYC over these past few days. Open your eyes and imagine yourself there instead of turning up your collar against a penetrating wind on lower Broadway.

This photo evokes the tropics, some far off posh spot... until you stumble onto that parenthetical to the untitled, where its humble origins are revealed. As I just said to someone via email "Carlo's pool reminds me that everything exists in New York. An endless expanse of turquoise water, real or manufactured, seems like the last thing you'd find in our gritty metropolis, but it's right here. (And in Queens no less!) And I also like imagining sultry Summer days while being pelted with hail."

I am just about to head west, Midwest actually, to where the winter weather is even winterier and photographers are in abundance. But one last thing before I go:

Our nifty new gift certificates are up and running. Get them at http://www.20x200.com/giftcertificates. Now you can give print credits, for 1 print, or 2 or 20 or however many you wish. And what better gift than art?

If you've already picked out the perfect print for that lucky someone there's still time - prints shipped via priority mail today or tomorrow should arrive just in the nick of time.

We're not quite done with our holiday spectacular either! I will be back at the very beginning of the week with the last few editions of the year. They're super good too, so oddly enough, I kind of can't wait for Monday. (Kind of...)

Till then: bon weekend!!!
