Houston Walkabout

David Hudson and I were guests at the Booker Lowe Gallery, 4623 Feagan Street, Houston, TX., this morning. Booker Lowe is one only a few galleries in the United States that specializes in Aboriginal fine art of Australia. This ancient art is rapidly gaining in popularity as is evident in this article that appeared yesterday's New York Times.

The highlight of the day for everyone in the gallery was an impromptu performance on a didgeridoo that was given to Nana Booker by John Reed. John received the didge as a gift from the mayor of Sydney in the 1960's. It sat silently in the corner of the gallery until David picked it up and made it sing.

Thanks to Karen Rezai for taking these pictures, and we look forward to seeing everyone from the Booker Lowe Gallery at the Compaq Center for tonight's show. ¶ 6:07 PM
