In the fall of 1997 I created an installation at the Audart gallery in NYC. In A Circle was a collaboration that used the Internet and other technologies to link groups of participants in many sites and cities. The core collaboration linked live performances in Houston, Buffalo and New York City via the Internet within similar fabric installations in each city.

    The Drawing Center, N.Y. showed my work in "THE RETURN OF THE CADAVRE EXQUIS". I collaborated with Ray Rapp and Ed Sobola using computers to create and process our composite self portraits.
This show traveled to:
    Fundacion para el Arte Contemporaneo, Mexico City
    The Santa Monica Museum of Art, Santa Monica, Ca.
    The Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.
    The American Center in Paris, France.

    In another notable show at The Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y., I created a fabric sculpture installation in collaboration with John Cage and LeJaren Hiller's "HPSCHD", which uses 40 slide projectors, 16 film projectors and 6 harpsichords. With Aki Takahishi, David Tudor, David Fuller, Yvar Mikhasoff and Neely Bruce.

    My "multi-perceptual" installations have been presented at:

Audart, The Art & Technology Circus, N.Y.
The Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn, N.Y in WORKING IN BROOKLYN/INSTALLATIONS
The Lincoln Center "Out-Of-Doors Festival, New York, N.Y. collaborating with Ruby Shang, Gilbert T'sai and Carman Moore in "TALES OF EXILE",
Experimental Intermedia Foundation, New York, N.Y.
The Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y.
'A' Space, Toronto, Ont.
Artpark, Lewiston, N.Y.

    In a commissioned performance of "THE RED STUDIO", I collaborated with Tom Aprile and Laura Young at Montclair State College and brought Matisse's studio in Issy to life, using projected computer animation to create a moving set with fabric sculpture, film, dance, and music, where the past and future were revealed in the moment.

    My philosophy is simple, "Ask questions". Questions are like tools and they can be used to mine consciousness and penetrate the layers of possibilities that make possible a journey towards meaning. My current works, "Questionings", are montages that juxtapose news / media images, museum art works, computer imaging and concepts on chaos theory that explore multiple meanings within complex systems.       

    As an educator I have worked at State University of New York at Buffalo, State University College at Buffalo, Damien College, Buffalo, NY, The Nichols School, Buffalo, NY, Ramapo College, NJ and Fairleigh Dickinson University, NJ. Throughout my twenty years of teaching I have had extensive involvement working with pre-k through 12^th grade in the New York public schools. In 1994 I was awarded a Leonard Bernstein Teaching Artist Fellowship for my work as a teaching artist, as well as a grant to do research to assess student learning in the arts.
