Reception September 8th, 3:00 – 5:00 pm
at Mockingbird Handprints Blue Star

Recent Street Photos, New York and Austin is Ed Malcik’s eighth exhibition at Mockingbird Handprints, Blue Star. His work shows moments odd, humorous, and unexpected, and can be pretty much anything, profound or banal. As he likes to say, “In the theatre of urban life I give equal emphasis to the stage, the props, and the actors.”

Another exhibition of Ed’s work, “Seamless Triptchs”, can be seen at the Mockingbird Handprints in Olmos Park, 4303 McCullough S.A, TX. Please join us during the month of September to see both his shows and meet Ed at First Friday Sept 6th 6:00-9:00 pm and either of his artist receptions Sept 7th, 3:00-5:00 pm Olmos Park, & Sept 8th 3:00-5:00 pm Blue Star.
