Along with the proposal she included a snapshot of a &#8220;cat mummy&#8221;  from London.

		<description><![CDATA[Paris Review 188 has a lovely collection of eleven collages by the American poet John Ashbery, 81. He&#8217;s a very interesting fellow, and if I&#8217;d ever been at Bard would have enjoyed learning from him. Academically credentialed, literarily plugged in, culturally invested - at least through the &#8217;70s. Its not clear to me what has roused [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m not terribly familiar with this artist, but impressed that he&#8217;d turn a Gerhard Richter painting into a table - he&#8217;s as playful and anti-establishment as [...]]]></description>

Layers of color like lacquer, applied carefully and used sculpturally - paper, cloth, plaster, tape, paint, wire - you name it, its there.
