An ongoing series deals with people’s encounters with art, shot in galleries in New York, San Francisco, Sydney and Melbourne. Greg understands that there are precedents; Elliott Erwitt’s 1999 Museum Watching and Tim Davis’s 2015 Permanent Collection, but brings his own perspective, not only in, as he says, seeking “odd behaviour, coincidences, moments…humour plus sociology,” but also his candid perception of critical response by audiences to art, as far as that can be conveyed visually. Amusingly, in some instances, it is the art that would appear to react to the gallery flaneur!
