Olivia Beens - New Work

Olivia Beens has been a working artist since I met her back in the 80's. She works in all media including sculpture, painting a found objects. We collaborated on a few performances in New York in group and one-person shows. Her most recent work is beautiful fired clay. The Beirut/Baghdad piece was part of an anti-war group exhibit at 128 Rivington this past summer. This piece which evoked a column of tears spanned an entire corner of the gallery from floor to celing.
