Paint Cans for Pollack Drawing

I am an artist, author, and architect. I wrote the book “The Art Dockuments,” published in 2012, which is portrait of the art community and the arts in Downtown Los Angeles from 1981-1986 told through the lens of the Art Dock, a drive-by loading dock gallery, initiated and curated by me, where the art of 34 LA artists was exhibited. I just finished “Facing Time,” an art and essay project about my’ self-portraits from 1973 to 2019. The book is in preparation for publication in 2020-2021. I wrote many articles about art and art communities. The latest is a series of 5 articles titled “Joan of Art Ghosts the Arts District” published on the WordPress blog, “The Art Doctore,” 2019.
