i... am not... a potato


I love that Haigh Jamgochian's Guggenheim Richmond, site of my current SOLO SHOW, was inspired by a foil wrapped baked potato he was served at dinner.

I USED TO BE SO INTO POTATOES!!!

Potato Polaroid from 1989. It is a jack-o-lantern! Scary!

A showdown of potatoes... also from 1989. Those are ACTUAL photocopied potatoes!

The painting posted at top is from early 1992-ish, I am thinking, the ending of the Potatoes and the Humbertos. Je ne suis pas une pomme de terre.
