A Life in Art

Page 37: Lynn Small - A Life in Art

CoLabARTLynn Small + Dennis Paul

Begun during our first joint-residency fellowships to Yaddo in 1978, our third artist - CoLabART - is a seamless fusion of painting, photographic processes and new digital modalities

that reflect the changes in the making of marks and the creation of 21st-century art.

Lynn Small and Dennis Paul are two artists whose stimulating images from the Long Island Series portray water fowl and boats… the environmental ‘hell’ of Love Canal

accounts for the chiaroscuro which marks their work to this day: the grandeur of our environment and man’s corruption of it.
