April 2010
Lisa was a visiting artist at the University of Georgia, Athens
Hosted by the Student Print Club, we did a collaborative project called "Swell." Students in the print program at UGA created images of spring - growth, rebirth, etc. - and printed them on to magnets. These were attached to cars which paraded through downtown Athens. We worked in partnership with the local radio station WUOG - they played Stravinsky's Rite of Spring which we blasted on our car radios while parading through the streets. At the end of the parade, the prints were distributed by attaching them to other magnetic surfaces. Spring was sprung.

Old Media/Old News, group exhibition at the Luminary Center for the Arts.
"Old Media/Old News proposes the artist as an alternative documentarian who engages, ingests, reimagines, or combats contemporary news sources and the mode of knowledge they presuppose. Positioning the six artists included as harbingers as well as combatants of the disposability and passivity we feel toward the contemporary media climate, Old Media/Old News is a document of the content stream made static and news invested in as art."

October 2009
The mixed media monotype,
Flashbulb Memory 1967: Detroit Riots is included in the
20th National Exhibition of the Los Angeles Printmaking Society.
Lisa resurrected Blindspot Galleries for the exhibition, Multiple x Multiple at the University of Tennessee, Ewing Gallery from October 9th - November 8th.
The project on Blindspot is entitled, All in Good Company, All in Good Time. It is comprised of woodcut portraits on magnetic vinyl of 20 people who left this world between July 3, 2008 and July 3, 2009, including Isaac Hayes, Jesse Helms, Michael Jackson, Bettie Page, Alexander Solzhenitsyn, and others. The entire project is meant to be a mobile monument that celebrates the lives of our fellow travelers and acts as a memento mori - a reminder of our mortality.
