Pipe Dream and Transmutation

Last week saw 

Pipe Dream 

installed 

at the Wimpfheimer Sculpture Park 

(thanks to the good graces of Doug Rice

and  Brian Wendler  and Bill Bendig

of the Hollycroft Foundation)

shortly after

Marya gave a beautiful welcoming 

for

a successful homecoming of Odysseus to the Egg 

(see clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ik8knbzP9lo&t=62s)

And, 

I hope next week

you can come and enjoy

our next edition of Ripostes

as Alice and I exchange

a brief volley of poems 

from this Spring

bookended by her flute music

playing

Ferroud’s Bergere Captive 

 

and ending with Jade

love and hugs

Framed and Delivered

Peter Campos came to my studio two days ago

to choose a painting for his apartment

with a lively group of friends

 He selected this one:

Shamanic Trio

Oil on Canvas April 2019, Hanoi, Vietnam

Painter’s Note

Shamanic Trio shows Leonor Fini, Max Ernst and an unknown third artist who looks to me like a young Robert Rauschenberg.  An adolescent eye disease forced Leonor to wear bandages on both eyes.  When she recovered at 17 she decided to become an artist and she joined theParis art scene in 1924.  Posing with Max Ernst for a surrealist moment with feathers and the Virgin Mary, she looks ready for a parade I want to join with this painting.

It was painted in my studio on the corner of Lạc Chinh and Trần Tế Xương streets on Trúc Bạch island, Hanoi, Vietnam..

Today, on a bike ride, Faye and I discovered 

the painting already framed 

ready to be delivered 

as follows:

with love 

and hugs
