I went to the Ft Worth Art Festival, only the 5th AF I've ever attended. Back in CAL they're always teamed with "wine"... This wasn't and was a much nicer event.
But oddly, there were several exhibiters that posted "no photographs" signs. Like all good photographers I took photographs anyway. Pictures of people. Blurring by, what in most cases, is pedestrian art that is bigger than it is interesting. And in two cases the artist-exhibiter became upset with me for photographing --- in the one case I was photographing the sign and told the AE that. When he remarked that he thought that was a "stupid thing to photograph" I replied that it was the smartest thing in his booth, also the most interesting.
None of the booths marked as "secret. eyes only" were manned by Texans.
Oh, Part II: it was a very rare... none ... booth that had flyers or cards out. My wife had to ask each and every person she was interested in for a card.
Is this the new wave .... KIAS... keep it a secret.
richard --- it was great to take Mona home (for those Texans who know)
