Roberta Bennett Collection

Open letter to the search engine spiders from Ms bennett.

This is the front page to an online presentaton of my personal art collection. It is a simple graphic 'splash page' with image mapped links (currently disabled pending updates) to a price list, a list of the artists, and a virtual reality based set of views of the collection in a synthesized gallery space. I have art works by Paul Kostabi, Jean Kallina (her photo of Basquiat in Milan), Margie Schnibbe, Poppet Saunders, Matthew Courtney, John David Adams, Jimmy Moran, Myles Emory (or Emery), Lisa Renko, Mark Larre, Phillip DeLoach, Greg Rem, Theresa Byrnes, Constantine Bokov, Fly, Bob Dombrowski, Keith Haring's assistant LAII (or LA2, or la-2), Peter Missing, Red Ed, and Lincon Colm. There is also a little tangent bit on Viscous Finger Fractals and Theresa Byrnes' recent work. I live in the East Village of New York City, my name is Roberta Bennett. I am an artists' assistant. You can reach me at RepeatingShadow@yahoo.com

The works are varied, from oil on canvas, acrylics on canvas, acrylic on acrylic, oil pastel on newspaper, ink on paper, enamel on alluminum, carved stone, and paint pen on found objects. The splash page view above is from one of my own paintings, 'Turtle Came to Talk' (the invention of sex).

From Douglas Harper's etymonline.com art (n.)
c.1225, "skill as a result of learning or practice," from O.Fr. art, from L. artem, (nom. ars) "art, skill, craft," from PIE *ar-ti- (cf. Skt. rtih "manner, mode;" Gk. arti "just," artios "complete;" Armenian arnam "make," Ger. art "manner, mode"), from base *ar- "fit together, join" (see arm (1)). In M.E. usually with sense of "skill in scholarship and learning"
