The BRIGHT and SHINING LIGHT of IRREVERENCE
My first solo exhibition, title above, is on view in the Kalkin House at the Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont from May 17th until October 25th. I'll be giving a gallery talk there on August 13.

Additionally, I've built another blog devoted to the installation THE SALON OF LOVE AND HORROR which is included in the show. The SALON is approximately 40 portraits done by a variety of artists from around the world depicting me as a human/animal hybrid:

There's a lot to love here. I'm so glad you made a blog devoted to the show.
I am loving the new work. Congrats on the solo show at the Shelburne Museum. It's a fantastic space.
These are very cool. Excellent work!
I was visiting friends in Burlington and was very happy to stumble on your work at the Shelburne Museum. Witty art and very well done. I love the toile pieces - so funny and excellent craftsmanship.
I want to live in that exhibition... can i make it my house? :D
