In keeping with my self-imposed deadlines of adding a post every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday before Midnight, I am hurriedly typing what will be a short piece. Gannet Newspapers – The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, have a website called ArtDrop.org.. They have been gathering self-portraits of area artists for the last two months, and today, I was able to see the installation of these self-portraits hung upon the wrought-iron fence that surrounds the Memorial Art Gallery on University Ave. There were many different styles and attitudes expressed by those who submitted work. I have two pieces on display, and there are several others who have multiple submissions. Because these were all submitted digitally, they were all able to be printed on the same weather-proof board material.
ArtDrop.org is sponsoring other events, including an interactive poetry walk and a “Stories About Rochester” interactive walk.
