a flower every day was a multi-media response to Marina Abramovic’s Museum of Modern Art retrospective and performance piece: The Artist Is Present (March 14-May 31 2010). It remains an unfinished project i often respond to the work of others, not with analysis but with work of my own I call this process ArtDialogue eight years ago, in response to another Abramovic performance i made a watercolor project: Inspired by The House With the Ocean View
a flower every day was my response to The Artist Is Present. and it was an outgrowth of the piece of my daily watercolor practice entitled life(s) lesson(s) the original premise was that each day, in honor marina’s “being present” i would add a drawing of a flower to one of two 40 x 60” watercolors and on the days that i visited the performance, i would draw, write and photograph. this documentation, along with other analysis was compiled on the blog: a flower every day
as the project progressed, I felt it needed a context outside of the Abramovic performance and I saw its culmination as being a mixed media exhibition consisting of: the 2 watercolors, 8-12 20 x 24” color photographs of the flowers drawn during the project, an installation of the flowers used during the project, access to the blog: a flower every day.
this installation has yet to be realized
