not so long ago, the postman delivered a package of scraps from australia
for my part in collage artist Joel Lambeth’s collaborative project “carry the one” i turn to my ladies
using only the bits of paper supplied (and a smidgen of paint) on the tiny canvas
my nudes have become a series (…with three more pieces on the way)
scraps of paper from around the world, this time it is Edgar for whom i bow deeply
la petite d’edgar – collage and acrylic 5″x 7″
after the bath – Edgar Degas
now off to the post office to mail the piece back to australia
travel well, doll
best of luck Joel!
thank you for the collaboration

eight walking sticks
eight stages of life
the “naked” final eight lined up in their life-cycle order
only twenty-two days to go before they are released out into the world
fun
exciting

while in montreal on saturday i stole this snap at the Tom Wesselmann retrospective at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts
(i later learned that photos were allowed. ha!)
Tom Wesselmann Smoker No. 1, on show at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts
the show is a good one
his early work spoke loudly to me
starting with collage then moving to the female nude
with nods to the greats
i feel a kindred spirit
his later steel-cut work is impressive, but i like the nudes
i found great, yet subtle, humour throughout
the documentation accompanying the art was also of great interest to me
i take to pop art one artist at a time
my gratitude to Mr. Wesselmann for his body of work and the inspiration it provided

it is day one of exploring, ” the emergence of the New York School and its links to a new global economy centered in New York City, Dada’s revival, Pop art’s flowering in mass consumer society, and Minimalism’s formal refinement and emphasis on spatial context.”
before i, ” then consider Conceptual art’s fundamental questioning of art, the development of multimedia artistic practices and performance art, and the influence of identity politics on art.”
