Experiments in art : digital : life

And this one will take a long time.

A diptych, this painting touches on a lot of aspects of our work, including both the history of performance and its live element, The Cover Artists, factory work + labor, and the relationship between digital and analog.

I hope to post various iterations as the paintings progress, but for now, here is the digital sketch of the LHS canvas. Both canvases measure 30 X 40 inches and are each comprised of 10,800 1/3 inch squares that will be individually painted.

If you’re in KC, come see + participate in Me/assage Me – my new interactive installation – tonight at H&R Block Artspace, 6-8pm.

If you’re not in KC, you can still participate by sending me encouraging messages that will appear during the performance.

Friend me on FB at Kate Lindholm to post.

Should educational materials be provided for free? There’s been a large movement over the past several years that says “yes!!”

Here’s a good background article from the New York Times.

Unfortunately, there don’t seem to be many classes in the visual arts – at least not that I’ve seen. I hope that can change.

Access is key!

Okay – the next phase of the UPP has launched: get in on it on Facebook.

Do you know how many friends your brain can handle? Well, one guy thinks that it’s 150. And that counts for Facebook too.
