This evening I discovered the [modernbook gallery](http://www.modernbook.com/gallery494.htm) in Palo Alto. They are currently featuring two excellent exhibits, one of portaits by [Mona Kuhn](http://monakuhn.com), and another, older set of prints from Hong Kong by [Fan Ho](http://www.modernbook.com/fanho.htm). Both are well worth seeing in person, as the web images do not do them justice. It was shocking to see how good art can be. I am particularly struck with how, in lesser hands, Mona’s photographs could end up trite and common, but instead they leave me with a sense of awe and appreciation for her vision.
