Uxia said he told Macdonald that
Johnsen's photos are nudes in
nature.
"I always describe work that is
coming in." LaRiccia said "I told
her that his work was tastefully
done nude photography.”
LaRiccia said Johnson's work
has boon displayed around town
in numerous galleries, including
a piece accepted in the mayor's
show.
Macdonald agreed to accept
the show without previewing
Johnson's work. She anti LaRic
tia ogrtHKi that because the pieces
would have to be removed when
the facilities were rented for wed
dings. November would lie bet
ter for Johnsen's display than
June.
Johnson put his show up on
Sunday. When Macdonald sow
it she said she thought his pho
tographs were of landscapes.
"Some of those pieces ore love
ly." she said, "but people don't
want to look at breasts when
they’re eating lunch.
"We are a restaurant, not a
gallery." she said. "Our first pri
ority is to the people who eat hem
and rent the facilities."
Johnson said MacDonald was
aware that the content of his
show was nudes in nuture. They
met three times Iwfore last Sun
day und agreed that the show
would lie taken down for the four
weddings scheduled this month.
Because his work is all the
same theme, he couldn't under
stand why one piece was more
improper than aiyrther.
