Hi John, No problem about it being an incomplete list, I've still got names that I have not (unhappily) been able to add myself - loads more.
So thanks for this & we are still getting it all ready. It has taken a bit longer because we are all pretty busy here, doing different jobs trying to survive, as well as all the stuff with furtherfield... wishing you well. marc hmmm, haven't had the time to think about this issue in the last two weeks to the depth it deserves, and it quickly turns into a happy wander through the depths of memory. and so this is a totally incomplete list... and it's not about just 'media' artists anyway, it's about women working in arts and culture who have influenced my worldview through the crossing of paths ... In no particular order, I would mention Lucy Lippard, a big influence at CU-Boulder where she was stationed when I was doing my MFA; Janice Tanaka, a video teacher I had at the same time; Kathy Kennedy, the owner of Photoworks, the top custom B&W lab in NYC, she turned me into a master printer; all my women students at the Icelandic Academy who taught me much about gender equality and fearless creative expression, especially Sara Bjornsdottir and Solveig Sveinsbjornsdottir; Valgerdur Hauksdottir, my colleague, friend, and artist who initiated one of the first networked/distributed Master's programs in Fine Arts in Europe in the early 90's; Finnish artist Kaisu Koivisto, a constant inspiration and friend; Nan Hoover, media and performance artist and teacher, whose passing last year was really a tragic loss to all who knew her; Bernice Luhulima, Eija Makivuoti, and Mari Keski-Korsu in Helsinki, Dagmar Kase in Tallinn, Rasa Smite in Riga, Isabelle Jenniches in Santa Cruz, Sophea Lerner in Delhi; Share.dj amigas Marie-Helene Parant in Montreal and Keiko Uenishi in NYC; Kristin Bergaust from Atelier Nord days; Francis Charteris in Boulder; Amanda McDonald Crowley now at eyebeam; Honor Harger; Kathy Rae Huffman; Helen Varley Jamieson; Carmin Karasic; Josephine Bosma; Joanna Buick; Sher Doruff; Bronac Ferran; Elisa Giaccardi; Antoinette LaFarge; Alice Miceli; Varsha Nair (womanifesto) in Bangkok; Leena Saarinen; Katrin Sigurdardottir; Helen Thorington; Adrianne Wortzel... Other former students who are continuous sources of creative inspiration: Sarah Chung, Nadja Franz, Jane Crayton, Fernanda Scur, Dona Laurita, Monique Stauder, Angelica Chio, Mary Finney, the Icelandic Love Corporation; Annu Wilenius Frida Kahlo; Louise Bourgeois; Yoko Ono; and others... with thanks, jh _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
