A Life in Art
CoLabARTLynn Small + Dennis Paul
Begun during our first joint-residency fellowships to Yaddo in 1978, our third artist - CoLabART - is a seamless fusion of painting, photographic processes and new digital modalities
that reflect the changes in the making of marks and the creation of 21st-century art.

Lynn Small and Dennis Paul are two artists whose stimulating images from the Long Island Series portray water fowl and boats… the environmental ‘hell’ of Love Canal
accounts for the chiaroscuro which marks their work to this day: the grandeur of our environment and man’s corruption of it.
