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.

Take time out for your loss Wayne. So very sorry and it doesn't get easier, it just gets so that you live with fond memories and that is almost as good as them still being around. May sound weird, but that is the way I am able to handle it. Steve ;)

This is just creepy, but done so well! Excellent work! Sorry to hear of the passing of your father. It's never easy to go through, but over time it does get better.

I am so very sorry for your loss. My father is gone 14 years now, and it is only in the last couple of years that I do not have tears well up in my eyes, or feel my throat get tight when I think of him. Well, not completely anyway. And I think of him often. Very often. He was the best man I ever knew, and my best friend. It will indeed take time, that is so very true. It will take a long time, but you should remember this: He loved you. He would want you to go on with your life and live a long, full, happy life. The ache of his loss will be less and less with each passing year. In time, you will smile when you think of him. And wherever he is, he'll smile too. I've always liked to think so. Take care, you and yours have my deepest sympathies. It will get easier, remember that.

I am so sorry. There are no words .. I don't think the grief ever really goes away, it abates somewhat, and the departed are never forgotten.
