Phil Stern Gallery Opening

Last night I went to the opening of the Phil Stern show in downtown LA. The exhibition was a selection of images, many never seen before, commemorating the 50th anniversary of John. F. Kennedy's inauguration. They can be seen online at the Phil Stern Archive.





For the past month the company where I work, BowHaus, scanned, edited, printed, mounted, framed, and hung the exhibition. It took an incredible amount of teamwork to get it all done, we spent many late nights and early mornings in order to get all of this finished. I personally mounted every print in the show, a somewhat nerve racking process with prints as large as 4 ft. x 6ft. It was a really good feeling to see it all up on the walls.
