Ignore It (It'll go away)
Just opened at the San Jose Museum of Art Bill Owens: Ordinary Folks. Bill Owens is a bay area native, east bay resident, originator of Buffalo Bill's brewery and restaurant in Hayward, and oh yeah, photographer, known for his environmental portraiture ("Suburbia", "Our Kind of People", "Leisure", and "Working").

thx for the HU RayPa. Nice, "simple" B&Ws from the 70s? I'm sold.
Even more reason to sneak down to San Jose, [ I've been wanting to get down to the Robert Crumb exhibit there as well.]

Bill Owens is an awesome guy......he was one of my teachers and I really liked talking to him......sometimes we talked about photography and other times we just talked about random stuff......that guy is cool in my book.....

Me too! I was down there last weekend for something else and drove past the museum with the intent to get in to see the Crumb exhibit. I ended up running out of time, but that's when I saw the advert for the Owen's show. Nice double bill for sure.
@Michael, I've heard that about Bill.
