This is one of the most exotic Trashpo pieces that I have received so far... and is it any wonder that it's from the Master of ceremonies, herself? Though I usually am overly verbose in my blog descriptions, I will let pictures of some of my favorite pages say all that is necessary about the creativeness of Diane Keys's piece:

What is the right way to critique a master's artwork?... someone who defines the genre with her medium? Elementally trashpo?  Trashpo at the core?  The magical transformation of base and refuse-able material into the golden fleece of tangible poetry? How will the art history textbook writers define this era and movement?  Ladies and Gentlemen, you witness history...

I would rather have a D-K than a D-Kooning.

 

Thank you for sharing this masterpiece, Thom. Since DK's Garage Sale Performance was banned in Illinois, I think it is even more important for the D-KULT (and elite DK-ULTRA forces) to make sure we keep "taking out the trash."

Right you both are, Roberto and Nancy--  I think saying that she has an "eye" for it is apt.

You said it, Thom and Roberto. It's magic.

Fabuloso !!!!! The DIVA does have an "eye" to convert trash into beauty, poetry, art.
