doarte
I live in New York City and am a practicing artist and educator.
Â
To begin … I have an M.F.A. from the University of Arizona. My academic and professional career include: teaching at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, serving as Director of the renowned 92 ST. Y’s Photography Department in New York City and Executive Director of the Institute for Art and Photographic Resources in Westchester New York and also an Adjunct Professor at New York University.
Other career highlights: I was awarded a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and Polaroid chose some my images for its 50th anniversary celebration … POLAROID 50, a collection of 50 leading artists including famous artists as Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams, Cindy Sherman, etc.
My work has appeared internationally in galleries and museums, including the Toyko Metropolitan Museum of Photography, 80 Washington Square Gallery, New York City, Gallerie Mabrie in Paris, France, Lombard Freid Gallery, New York City, The Photographers Gallery London, England, Visage London, England, X+Â Brussels, Belgium Contretype, Brussels, Belgium, Thomans Cohn Gallery Rio de Janerio, Brazil, Foundation Canon Image Center Amsterdam, Art Institute Chicago, Illinios, Caltherine Edelman Gallery Chicago, Illinois, Kara Geneve, Zurich, Switzerland. Baronian -Lambert, Ghent Belgium.

A parallel “passion†for computer art began 15 years ago with 3D image making and the now ancient Photoshop 5 which culminated in QUESTIONS FOR A FETUS … a three-month installation of some 60 digital images sponsored by the Mother Earth Committee of New York City.
And now?  Now there’s doarte’s merry MADHOUSE with its Museum of Unnatural History for mementos past and present, the ODDATORIA Galleries for beasts and beauties, devil dolls and scenes devoted to serenity, a MIDWAY mad for models (fashionable and futuristic, glamorous and ghastly). And of course there is a circus serving divine divas to acrobatic rats … dozens of digital images dedicated to a relief from reality.
But the grandest dream of all … joining with other digital artist to make the computer a respected and important contributor to the world of art … just as the camera did for the world of photography.

Aha! the Three Grrrs approve, the two still here, and the third herself in ghostly form .. all crave BONES! SOoooooo. I'm enjoying this one immensely .. being a great fan of Halloween, but the Grrs are in the other room. They can smell bones even over the internet, Mwaaaahahahaha! My worry however, is the third Grrrrrr. In Ghostly form, she can infiltrate the Madhouse Midway quite easily, and descrecate Dem Bones. One would do well to be on the alert with a bag of liver treats.

My dear Doctor... felicitous greetings and exuberant apologies( for not reconnecting sooner), My intended, Lady Constance, and I have of late returned from the Queendom of the Moonmaidens, arrived just in time for the yearly celebratory donning of costumed frivolity that is known as All Hallow's Eve...just ot find that the Odditoria is in full swing of the occasion....as evidenced by the exhibited portraiture thus ensconced on the presented aether. Lady Constance and I will adjourn ourselves at the best moment to re-aquaint with yourself and your coteri of wondert and imagination.... Lady Constance sends her love, hoping to meet again with you soonest. I remain Commander, Sir Asimov Vinge Zelazney, Terran Trust and Investigations
