NOA Gallery

NOA Gallery
Originally uploaded by In Shaw

Several days ago I popped into a Bloomingdale gallery on my way to Timor, after a stop at Bloomingdale Liquors. NOA Galley at 132 Rhode Island Avenue, where the NOA stands for New, Old and Abstract. Inside are paintings, posters, sculptures, and some really cool 20th century lamps.
The thing about the gallery that I really liked was the affordable-ness of it. I've been to other galleries and there are things I like but I find out what the price is, usually $2K-$15K, and um, no. I saw a painting that was bigger than a bread box, on the second floor of this gallery, liked it and it was only $350. And I did look at the prices and even the cool lamps are under a thousand.

History, me complaining, history, stuff about the immediate hood (Truxton Circle) and the surrounding neighborhood (Shaw), gentrification, demographics, and some more history.

In Shaw (now with more gentrification) is about the changes going on in the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, DC. Mainly the eastern section of the neighborhood that is still "transitional". Topics range from horrid community meetings, to culture clashes, to remodeling and the unromantic view of living in an old house. This Old House, bite me! Please note that this is a personal blog and does not represent anyone else's opinion except my own, not my employer, not my universities, not that of my family, church, friends or neighbors. Just me, so I retain the right to post or not to post any irresponsible tripe that comes into my head.
