Also on hand yesterday was a two-man crew shooting a documentary on Crewdson for Gallery HD, which bills itself as the first and only arts and museum television channel broadcast in high definition. The station is available on VOOM, a high-definition satellite television service. The piece on Crewdson is scheduled to air in September.
