Hi islandgirl,

Your question was surprisingly challenging. Because Mr. Watson's work
is so acclaimed, I mistakenly assumed sources for it would not be
difficult to find on the Internet. Of course, if that were true, you
probably wouldn't have posted your question with Google in the first
place :-)

After spending hours searching every photography gallery in the U.S.
and Canada, I had found only what rainbow-ga had posted in a comment,
plus one other gallery. Then I awoke from my mental slumber and
decided to try a more direct route, as I should have done much earlier
in the process: I looked up Albert Watson in the New York City Yellow
Pages, called his studio, and got the information you seek. Here's
what I learned from Jessica, Mr. Watson's very cordial assistant:

Kicken in Berlin no longer carries Mr. Watson's work. He is now
handled in that city by Galerie Camerawork. Their complete information
(address, telephone, Watson work available for purchase, etc.) is
here: http://www.camerawork.de/

Although they showed some of his work in a recent Elvis-theme show,
Howard Greenberg Gallery in New York does not carry it or represent
him. They suggested in email correspondence over the weekend that I
contact his studio to find his current representation. Although they
weren't specific about how to do that, that's when the light went on
that perhaps Mr. Watson headquartered in NYC.

I had previously found in Google searching that Fahey/Klein Gallery in
Los Angeles carries Mr. Watson's work, and the Albert Watson studio
confirmed that relationship is current.

Fahey/Klein Gallery
148 North La Brea
Los Angeles, Ca 90036
(323) 934-2250
Email: fahey.klein@pobox.com
http://www.faheykleingallery.com/

According to the Watson studio, Camerawork and Fahey-Klein are the
*only* galleries currently carrying Mr. Watson's work.

Mr. Watson's studio can be reached in New York City at (212) 627-0077.

Fantastic for my first try at your service!!  I hope the researcher to
my other question which as "galleries that handle work by Michael
Compte" is equally as diligent.  Thank you again.
