"devitaed alies" Fashionista Series


My artwork is included in the upcoming book and exhibition "Let's Hit the Road Again".

The book will also be sold in retail and museum stores, it has just been published and is now available.

Let's Hit the Road Again celebrates America’s love affair with the automobile —  and the book and traveling exhibition explore the car’s impact on American life and society.  The automobile transformed America— where we live, how we work, how we travel, what the cities and suburbs look like, our environment – all have been profoundly shaped by the car.

The book includes images of the 150 artworks selected for this exhibition  from the LandfillArt Collection of over 1000 artworks.

MY CONTRIBUTION

I decided to make mine an homage to one of my favorite artists,
Bruce Conner (November 18, 1933 - July 7, 2008)

On June 1, 2011 The Associated Press released a wonderful wire service news story about the international Landfillart Project. The story was featured in hundreds of newspapers and many broadcast television news stories.

A great opportunity to purchase some of Carl Heywards art (priced to sell)

 

Cha Cha Cha by Carl Heyward
Chinese anatomy charts, plastic tapes, acrylic paint

I have not posted any new, now also older work for awhile now as I have been busy with
projects- hopefully I will get to it soon.


 

I built and maintain a memorial website for Ronnie Montrose. He was not only a great and dear friend
but one of the most amazing guitarists of our time. He recently received a memoriam at the 2013 grammies.


There are some nice photos posted online @ artbusiness.com
that include the SCRAP exhibition at the ARC gallery.
They got the title wrong on my art work
it is not "Died Young" it is

"27"

as they (THE ROCK STARS IN THE ART WORK) all died in their 27th year
of living. They also got my name wrong- it is not Deb but Deborah Hayner.
Scrap had spelled my name wrong on the exhibition materials
so the name boo boo is Scrap's- and guess what- no one cares!-but me.


  The very first exhibit of the Landfillart Collection will take place in September of 2014. 
This "very prestigious museum" will choose approximately 230 pieces of art from our collection. 
The official announcement, by their marketing department,
will take place on April 22nd, 2013...EARTH DAY!


 

A lot more collages to come this year!

 


 

I'll be glad when this year is over!
BO LOZOFF DIED NOVEMBER 29th 2012

He was my dear friend and collaborator- we worked on lots of projects together-

I created this collage for Bo May 3 2006 where Bo Lozoff gave one of his illuminated talks
at the San Francisco Zen center. Bo and his wife Sita are the founders of the Human Kindness Foundation. They have been doing prison ministry for many years.

We had just developed his new cd- BO GOES COUNTRY

A LITTLE BOY IN THE LAND OF RHYME

EXCOR
Revival of Exquisite Corpse
In January 2010, a handful of North Bay artists began an underground adventure
which we call EXCOR, or the Revival of Exquisite Corpse. EXCOR is a
revitalization of the mid-20's Surrealist game, Exquisite Corpse – one of many
games of chance, discovery, and hilarity played as a diversion against the "raging
madness" of the decade. This is a blind collaborative visual exercise where one
artist begins by creating a head (of sorts), conceals it from the next who completes
the torso, and a third player is assigned the bottom of the creation – none of them
having seen the others' work. Notable artists of the time, such as Breton, Tanguy,
Duchamp, Man Ray, Picabia, Ernst, and Miro produced some remarkable
creations via this game.
In our game, the completed EXCORs were unveiled in spirited ceremonies at
participating artists' studios throughout the year. The unveilings, which were
attended by all of the artists, have proven to be an exhilarating collaborative
experience yielding provocative creatures, unexpected symbolism, and creative
camaraderie. We now number 33 Northern California artists and have completed
our goal of 40 EXCORs.

EXCOR Continued...


We had a very successful initial public showing in November in Santa Rosa,
which sparked tremendous interest in the EXCORs themselves, as well as in
the concept and its historical roots.
2011 will mark EXCOR's MIDLIFE. We plan to publish a book of our adventure
featuring the history of Exquisite Corpse, our EXCOR revival story, and images of
all 40 works. We believe the combination of the fascinating Surrealist history
followed by the “new surrealists” similarly rebelling against today's "raging
madness" will make an unusual and creatively-juicy story and event.
We are currently seeking an exhibit at a gallery or venue in Northern
California some time during the year of 2011. Then, at the end of the year,
we plan to throw a memorial event to bring an exquisite end to our exquisite
collaboration.
