Jo Sandman
Trained as a painter, artist Jo Sandman went on to create experimental drawings, sculpture, and photography during a career that spanned seven decades. Working with dropcloths acquired from “crusty old house painters who had crusty old tarps,” she created what she called drawings or glyphs-perhaps recalling time she spent at Black Mountain College near Asheville. These stained and splattered dropcloths demonstrate her embrace of unconventional materials and desire to explore abstract shapes to express her concept of a poetically visual language. Below is from the Weatherspoon collection.

Judy Pfaff
was surprised to see when blogging about Helen that I hadn’t yet touched on Judy’s work (she is also in Destination Earth). There’s often recognizable… stuff in Judy’s work (here is Hyperallergic on Real and Imaginary from last Fall). Sort of like Liz and Jessica. Readers who like this sort of maximalism will also like Sarah’s work.

Daniel G. Hill
recent sculptural work advances concerns of gravity, mechanics, flexibility, structure, and form that have motivated him since the early stages of his career, given inspiration from 19th century mechanical systems, toys from his childhood, Latin American 20th Century non-objective art, and late modernist cubic sculptures.
