Tampa Heights road resurfacing/bike lanes
Seems like they've been making good progress on Tampa Street in the northern area of Tampa Heights. All three lanes have now been resurfaced, and they've added a bike lane. There's still a real dodgy area of the road north of the interstate up just a little north of Columbus, and hopefully they get to that soon.
I will say I do ultimately pine for Tampa and Florida to become 2-way streets, but this small improvement looks to go a long way.
Now let's see if the people passing through the neighborhood can manage to actually use the bike lane and go the right way down the street ...

STEVE McCLURE
RECENT WORK
OPENING RECEPTION: FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 14, 2007, 6-9 PM The Artist will be present.
SEPTEMBER 14 through OCTOBER 27, 2007
Bleu Acier is proud to present an exhibition of new paintings by New York based artist Steve McCLURE.
For the past year McClure has been living and working in Provincetown Massachusetts as a recipient of the prized Fine Arts Work Center Fellowship. McClure paints light; the way it draws and reveals form within a given space; the active white space of the image defines the positive space of action. His ink and watercolor images on paper mix precision and atmosphere as if you were a voyeur into another’s song.
McClure borrows from the artifice of drama and uses these elements to secure a visual narrative that combines different elements from different historical and political eras into one frame. It is here where we can understand his admiration of obsolete photographic treatises and their historical conflicts with painting. He calls his work camera-less photographs and explains that “like photography they use a simple process (ink absorbed into paper) and are informed by chance events like gravity and evaporation.” McClure works often in series and sticks close to the photographic format of 4 X 5 inches. His use of historical and political metaphor combined with a brilliant contemporary abstract use of paint introduces the viewer into a mixed ambiance of déja vu and right now.
BLEU ACIER INC. is an active fine art print publisher, print atelier, gallery and live-in loft that functions at the intersection of private and public space where art and the city keep company. Bleu Acier exhibits works in all disciplines by emerging, mid-career and established artists from the U.S. and Europe.
