Door 3 Gallery is proud to host this month’s multi-talented artist – David Michael Curry.
He will be showing photographs from his series Observations and Little Histories.
“Looking and listening is as much a compulsion as it is a lifestyle choice for me.
In art school, I specialized in billiards and beer, skateboards and weird music, but I also learned about seeing from photographer Abelardo Morell, filmmakers Saul Levine and Luther Price, and my Dad Justin, a lifelong painter and educator in art.
In my photography, I look for the history of things, up close. I see beauty in decay and have the ADHD superpower of noticing the little things and finding a personal poetry about them, like an observational osmosis translated to an internal collage of tangents, fragments, and stories.
Sometimes I am lucky enough to travel the world to play music, and I always bring my camera.
I also love bicycles. PLEASE RIDE ONE!
These photographs are printed small, especially for the Door 3 Gallery’s miniature scale.”
For more of David Michael Curry’s work and music check out his website:
David is a talented musician; playing viola in rock, “alt-country” & improvisational groups, including Empty House Cooperative, Animal Hospital Ensemble, Thalia Zedek, Willard Grant Conspiracy, Drew O’Doherty, and lots of others…
Empty House Cooperative is improvised music with DMC and friends, most often including Jonah Sacks, Thalia Zedek, Chris Brokaw, and others.
That’s not all folks… he also rides with SCUL and builds his own choppers…. and knows a thing or two about cigars!
Come out, meet and greet, you won’t be disappointed!
The usual dainties will be served.

Come by Thursday, March 8th between 7 and 9pm for this month’s opening reception hosted by your favorite bicycle shop!
The door 3 curatorsare proud to present the photographic work of Neil Goodwin.
From his website:
I’ve been taking pictures for as long as I can remember. I’ve been an architect, a film maker and a writer and through all of those enterprises I continued to take pictures.
The first photographs that affected me deeply me were Walker Evans’s images of the towns and people of the deep south. They had an unforgettable impact on me – still do. He taught a course in photography at the Yale School of Art and Architecture in 1965 as I was finishing my training in architecture, and I leapt at the chance to study with him.
I practiced architecture for a number of years, then, following what I can only describe as a compulsion that would not be denied, I made a documentary about wolves in the Canadian Arctic. The completion and release of that project led to the making of more movies, and before long I was doing documentaries full time. Most of them were for Public Television on wildlife, natural science and historical subjects. In the last few years I have moved away from film production and have written two books deriving from my father’s work as an anthropologist with the Apache Indians. Set in Mexico’s Sierra Madre mountains and the American southwest, the books are: The Apache Diaries and Like a Brother.
This selection of pictures is eclectic – taken over a long period of time and in many places. I took many of them in the course of travel while making films or writing, but I find things to take pictures of wherever I go. I take pictures of things that interest me. Among them are: man-made things that come to life when abandoned; ironies, ambiguities and raw beauty in landscapes and cityscapes.
So mark your calendars now and we’ll see you next week! The usual dainties will be served.
Everything is better with JAM – including our most recent selection of art from local Somerville and Cambridge folks.
Sorry for the late notice, but this Friday, February 10th from 7-9pm Door 3 crew will be unveiling the newest exhibition in our homespun gallery.
The art will be ….. JAM Packed! Extra special presence from Broadway Bicycle School’s very own Michael Padgett with his Jamtastic Creations. Free samples of homemade jams and marmalades will abound (of course, in addition to the usual dainties.) Take some home too!
Quick get out your calendars and add this opening December 16th at 7pm.
Come by Broadway Bicycle School for our newest Door 3 Gallery Show!
The art will be ….. interpretive, featuring a handful of local artists given the theme “Little Helpers” and well, not much else!
(We can’t wait to see the outcome.)
Dainties as usual, but now with mistletoe.
If you would be interested in submitting a piece for this show — It’s not too late!!
Let us know by giving a call to the shop, 617-868-3392 or sending an email to door3gallery@gmail.com
