Two participating venues in ACP 10 were highlighted last week by Cinque Hicks in Creative Loafing. “Peter Bahouth illuminates his picture show at Marcia Wood Gallery” and “Visual art: 2004: Atlanta to Baghdad.

On Bahouth:

“Bahouth respects idiosyncratic details – a stack of tattered books, a full martini glass – and can render rich surfaces almost touchable, making an intense gaze worth the effort. Each jewel-like photograph offers a tiny burst of retinal pleasure. Objects invariably shine, glitter or glow warmly. The details of hair, foliage and fabric stand out with a crispness and contrast that has all but vanished from most contemporary portraiture.”
