We are happy to announce that the artist's first book, "A Low Country Notebook" is in its second printing. Copies are available at the galleries representing the artist or by contacting this site directly. The cost is $45 for a signed copy.	.Michael Gray will be the Emcee for the 5th installment of Charleston Pecha Kucha. Pecha Kucha, Japanese for the sound of conversation, is a mix of show-and-tell, open-mike night and happy hour that has become a forum for ideas on design, architecture and other forms of creativity. Devised in 2003 in Tokyo, Pecha Kucha Night has spread virally to over 135 cities around the world as an informal forum for creative people to meet, network and show their work in public. Each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for just 20 seconds, giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, the interest level up, and gives more people the chance to show. Gray was a presenter at PKN4 and was asked to host the upcoming installment on January 21, 2010 for more info and tickets http://pechakuchacharleston.com
