GINNY LLOYD ONLINE

Hello and Welcome to my site - which is currently Under Construction!

Are you visiting to reconnect or are you new? To bring you up to date I'll share a section from my memoirs:

In the 70's, as a student at Syracuse University in upstate New York, I discovered a love for photography while I rekindled an interest in "making things" and art, I've had my whole life. From my photography friends I heard about FLUXUS and the happenings taking place in New York City. I loved the ideas being explored and the incorporation of what I considered to be free "spirit" into this new conceptual art form. More will be written about this later.

After graduating I moved to San Francisco, meeting Anna Banana and Bill Gaglione, aka Picasso, in the neighborhood. When I asked what the street fair booth they had was about, Bill answered, "DADA!"

Of course I immediately thought, "Dada is dead!" Little did I know I was wrong.

"Is it like Fluxus?" I asked.


Fast forward to today - I continue to stay connected with many people I meet through a friendship that was kindled at that moment. From those questions and outward a connection to so many artists and patrons grew into a life that at times was consumed by ART. This site is about my ongoing and past work - pursuing my love of stories, artistamps, artibooks and photography.

My current art activities are centered around photography and artibooks, writing, and my mail art activities are focused on artistamps - my own and my archives. I send a sheet of my current work to artists who want to send a sheet as trade. My own artistamp sheets are for sale as well. My limited edition multiple artibooks are currently sold at www.amazon.com and www.alibris.com - just use the advance search features entering my name.

Thank you fro visiting,

Ginny

Performed at the opening of the Chromatophore Mail Art Show:
Jennifer Zoellner--aka "mummy" and I performed "Futurisnm Meets Fluxus" that I wrote, inspired by Allison Knowles and Anna Banana. Put the ingredients in a blender (I live in South Florida so blenders are important!) and pour it out to make this performance. Tommy, Jennifer's 11 year old made this video.
