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.

Ooooooooooooooo! I think I need some of this psychic therapy! Then again, maybe it's your 'puters that need therapy.. I hate it when that happens! Betweem my machines, and the one I built for my wife, we have 4 desktops and two laptops. they are all networked, so I don't dare have all of them on at the same time, or they plot against me.. Anyway... This is brilliant! I love that it's almost monochrome - then the aqua color of her dress is a delightful splash of color! Just superb!

Must have been contagious! I blew mine, replacement arrived trashed and fixed old one. I could use some psychic psalms to flatter the fates into feeling favorable towards me. Intergenerational talents????? LOL

There is always an air of mystery about Madhouse and this glimpse/peek is no exception ! Glad your PeeCee's are playing the game once more and I'm also happy I didn't have to see Mr Jersey ! Well done & ~Cheers~

Nice to have you back again. Todays picture promising what that are about to come does precisely that, arising excitement and expectations. The drapes are fine, but falling a little too regular..

Wow, glad to see you posting again, Wayne! Just like what Rod wrote, the monochrome colors are most amazing accentuated by the aqua green dress. A very nice come back image!

Honestly can't think of a better way to start my weekend than with a trip to the MADHOUSE. Thanks so much for the peek behind the curtain as they say. It certainly sounds like fun to be had by all and you can count me in.

i think, when two computers go out at the same time, it is an artificial intelligence conspiracy. gotta make certain they don't communicate behind your back. great scene...very clinical with all that "white" and one very lovely, mysterious gal who looks like she's got some tricks up her sleeveless sleeves.
