Past NEWS April 16, 2007 - PHOTOS from "CONNECT" with Allison Hoge @ Breathe Yoga Studio
Auxiliary show at: I am really excited to participate in this show to work with moxieDaDA again and also because it is a two-person with Allison Hoge (www.allisonhoge.com), who is an amazing artist from Pittsburgh. I'm really interested in seeing how our work will function in the same room, as we both love strong colors, abstract fields and the awesome range of oil textures. I will be showing a new series of bioart pieces, that explore a varietly of themes about the self-replicating patterns found in sub-organismical nature. Intrigued? Come see the show.. From the moxieDaDA's press release: Having been involved with CONNECT in the past, both artists had shown great ability to captivate the viewer and initiate greater investigation of their work. This is a two part exhibit, with artwork relating to the 2nd and 5th chackras, shown at Breathe Studio with auxiliary works by both artists at moxieDaDA. For more information, please see also the web site for the organizing gallery moxieDaDA (www.moxiedada.com) and the venue Breathe Yoga Studio ( www.breathe-yogastudio.com). New: see photos at the opening >> The moxieDaDA side of the show will have a soft closing at the end of the month, more details soon. April 16, 2007 - PHOTOS

The Mellon College of Science News Magazine has come out! It features a blurb on my collaboration with Dr. Alison Barth that has resulted in the pieces "Spines" and "Mouse Hippocampus.." My bioart work was born while working as an undergraduate in neurobiology with Dr. Barth and developmental biology with Dr. Ettensohn. The beautiful images that I was exposed to on a daily basis led to my putting them onto the canvas. The "Mouse Hippocampus...", in particular, received recognition as the cover for the scientific journal "Journal of Neuroscience" (April 2005)!.. Feb.3, 2007 - Commission to CMU The Department of Statistics at Carnegie Mellon University, in Mellon College of Science Alumni Magazine MCS Alumni Magazine (expected publication December 2006) will feature a blurb on my collaboration with Dr. Alison Barth that has resulted in the pieces "Spines" and "Mouse Hippocampus.." Oct.2006 - WQED Interview Susie Meister made a piece on "Art In Transit" for WQED and I was featured as one of the participating artists. It was a great experience and you can check us out here on YouTube! It's really wonderful that "Art in Transit" keeps receiving press and it's going to happen again in 2007, so look out for more calls for artists and new art on the buses!..

<<Me
(Joana) and Alison Barth
the person
of Marck Schervish, wanted to say thank you to Robert
Kass for his years as Head of the department. But they wanted to do it
in a new way, after much thinking Mark decided that a great idea would
be have an art piece created that would symbolize Rob's own research.
Marb and Valerie Ventura contacted me last year to accomplish this idea.
Andy Schwartz was kind enough to let me in on the research he has done
with Rob and give me access to a lot of fantastic imagery that they have
generated on the neurobiology side of this research. As such, "Animal Neurons - a Circle" was
born. On Saturday Feb.3rd, at a Faculty Lunch, the piece was delivered
to Rob - much to his suprise!
