Thank you all so much for the quick and specific advice! You saved me from
making a couple of very costly mistakes.
The show is at ICP - not the main gallery but the one just across the street
on the other side of 6th Ave. The show is called "A Visual Life" and runs
from Sept 17 to Dec 19th.
Thanks again so much. This list is an invaluable resource.
