ALL TRUE TOMBOYS
|
|
(Leslie/Lohman Gallery -Basement Annex -, 127-B Prince Street, New York, NY, 10013)(Noon - 6pm) “The tomboy is the lesbian’s inner
core, her secret weapon; "Tomboys”
explores tomboys big and small in
mixed media oil paintings combining
flannel shirts, t-shirts, photo
transfers, marbles, jacks, dildos and
other fun stuff.”
Opening reception 6-8pm
I started at Cal Arts in the Feminist
Studio Workshop and left to paint
murals for the City of Los Angeles
with street gangs. Feminism and
activism have guided me ever since. I
cofounded the public art organization,
SPARC, in Venice California, and
have received public art commissions
in California, New York and New
Hampshire. I have exhibited my
paintings in galleries in Los Angeles,
New York, Provincetown and East
Hampton and received grants from the
Pollock-Krasner and Gottleib
Foundations. I painted the Tomboy
paintings in the early '90's when I
was searching to recapture a certain
vital essence of spirit which I felt I
wanted to embody in both my life and
my art.
