Remembering Helen Frankenthaler

Lobster & Canary welcomes the new year by celebrating the work of Helen Frankenthaler, who died December 27th at age 83. For an especially insightful obituary, click here for Lance Esplund's "Frankenthaler Bridged Genres, Created Worlds of Burning Color"; and click here for the write-up, with slide show, in the New York Times.

May her visionary use of color and her inspired wanderings with form continue to nurture our spirits in the new year.Daniel A. Rabuzzi is author of the fantasy novel "The Choir Boats," available from ChiZine Publications in September 2009.
"The Choir Boats" explores issues of race, gender, sin, and salvation, and includes a mysterious letter, knuckledogs, carkodrillos, smilax root,
goat stew, and one very fierce golden cat.
