Artist Statement:
National Geographic Magazine
chose Joanne in October 2000
as the exclusive photographer
to promote its "Explorer" TV
show titled "Top Dogs," a film
on the Westminster Kennel Club
Dog Show.
Joanne's work was accepted
into the 2000 and most
recently, 2001 "Art Show At
The Dog Show", a prestigious
juried fine arts competition
devoted to the dog. All of
Joanne's 2000 entries were
then chosen for the Special
Exhibit of Selected Works on
display at the AKC Museum of
the Dog.
Joanne's newest computer art
is a series entitled
"Tapestry." The work involves
her own photography which is
digitally manipulated into
various fabrics and textures
to create a final tapestry
feel. Her inspiration for the
series derives from the
tapestry reproductions she
collects of the "Lady and the
Unicorn" tapestries of c.1450
- all of which depict a
greyhound somewhere in the
scene.
Contrary to her digital
Tapestry Series, Joanne's
traditional photography
focuses on people and animals
found in their natural
environment.
Joanne is in her sixth year as
a Professor of Digital
Photography at NYC's School of
Visual Arts....
