Uzzle will have approximately 45 photographs exhibited, reflecting his work both as a photographer and participant at Daytona for over twenty-five years. Uzzle was twice President of Magnum and is one of this country's foremost photographers. He works with both Leica and Hasselblad and executes his own prints. Micha Bar-Am was for many years The New York Times photographer in Israel and is a Magnum correspondent in Israel. He will have approximately fifteen photographs displayed (all with Leica) and the show is in celebration of his forthcoming (Feb. - May) exhibit at the entire Uptown International Center of Photography. Both photographers will be present at the opening reception and would be happy to discuss their work and methods. It is our experience that these events - in addition to being very enjoyable - are a great learning experience as one can view exhibition copies of the works and can also have a dialogue with master photographers. If you cannot come to the opening, the shows run through March 14 and we are open Tuesday through Friday from 11 to 6 and Saturday, 12 to 6. Signed copies of the photographers' books will be available and, of course, there is never an admission charge. If you can come, please introduce yourself to us. Regards - Rose and Jay Deutsch
