 Untitled, 2005 | F-Stop Fitzgerald Chasing the Virgin in a Land Obsessed with Ham |
F-Stop Fitzgerald is renowned for his 35mm chronicling of rock bands (including Dead Kennedys: the Unauthorized Version, 2004, Last Gasp of San Francisco). But last March in Sevilla, Spain, he switched to digital format, recording Holy Week celebrations featuring men dressed in hooded robes carrying floats bearing statues of Christ or Mary. A show of Fitzgerald's digital Spanish travelogue, "Chasing the Virgin in a Land Obsessed with Ham," opens Saturday, June 4 (7-10pm) at Awake Gallery, 10 Down Street, Kingston, and runs through July 9. (845) 532-2448.
