Here is some of my recent work....Untitled 370 (Love) graphite on paper, 19x20"-- drawn from a degenerated photocopy of an archival photo. And Untitled 360 (Hippie Swim), xerography on canvas 63.5x72"-- cut xerographic prints of archival photographs of communes. Thanks, Adrienne.
I was invited by Adrienne Marcus to share some pics of art and for Day Two it is Sculpture Sunday. So here are a few sculptural pieces from the last few years that reference the forms of Bucky Fuller- his geodesic domes and Dymaxion Map- and are part of my larger interests in Utopian and intentionalized communities (hence the communes etc of other works). As it is Sculpture Sunday, I'd like to invite two sculptors who played a huge part in setting my feet upon the path of being an artist and whose works I've always loved: Paul Mauren and Jeanne Flanagan, I invite you to share three images a day for five days and invite two more artists each of those days. This should be fun and interesting not burdensome. Please tag me in your posts so I can see them when they go up.
Here is: Dome VI, wood, hardware, 96x96x48 2014 (left) Dome II, found cardboard, hardware, 96x96x48 2011-14; Untitled(Notes for the Future), concrete, steel, 156x96x2, 2012 and Untitled (Dome V) concrete, steel 2012, 40 cast concrete triangles appr 30x30x30 ea.

I was invited by Adrienne Marcus to share some pics of art and for Day Three here are a few pieces from my 2012 show at Masters Projects (then Masters&Pelavin)
in New York. These works all reference Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion
Map as part of my larger interests in utopian dreams and strivings.
They are all cut xerographic prints on canvas with the prints derived
from degraded archival images of Modernist architecture, communes and
other intentionalized communities. I'm running out of people to invite to this who haven't already joined in.... how about two wonderful former students of mine Amanda Ellinger(who assisted me with many of these pieces) and Emily Dorr...
I invite you both to share three images a day for five days and invite
two more artists each of those days. Note: This should be fun and
interesting not burdensome. Please tag me in your posts so Ican see
them when they go up.

I was invited by Adrienne Marcus
to share some pics of art and for Day Four here are a few pieces from
the past year and a half. These works all reference Mondrian's
"lozenge" paintings as part of my larger interests in utopian dreams and
strivings. They are all cut xerographic prints on canvas with the
prints derived from degraded archival images of Modernist architecture,
communes and other intentionalized communities. I'm running out of
people to invite to this who haven't already joined in.... how about Babs Owen and Cynthia Hartling
... I invite you both to share three images a day for five days and
invite two more artists each of those days. Note: This should be fun and
interesting not burdensome. Please tag me in your posts so I can see

I was invited by Adrienne Marcus
to share some pics of art and for my final Day Five here are a few very
recent works.... Two graphite on paper drawings of degenerated
photocopies depicting archival photos of hippie communes (the same
images used for the collaged works) and one new collage piece on
aluminum panel that again references Mondrian's "lozenge" paintings and
uses cut xerographic prints-- this time of large crowds. Still all
part of my larger interests in utopian dreams and strivings. I'd like to invite fellow-drawer Juliet Jacobson,
with whom I had the pleasure of showing last year, and I feel like I
may have neglected an invite to someone.... somewhere.... I 'd hate for
this to feel like the middle-school kick-ball team... Scott Brodie? Chelly Rock Hegan? James Cullinane?
... I invite any to share three images a day for five days and invite
two more artists each of those days. . Please tag me in your posts so I
can see them when they go up. This has been fun. Thanks for
inviting me Adrienne and thanks you all so much for taking a look....
