I was trained as a painter, but I’ve been fascinated by digital art creation technologies for over twenty-five years. Computers empower total art synthesis.
 
I was the inventor of the Sneakers of Samothrace, wearable computers for creating music and projected visuals.  I created the Shamancycle, a giant sculpture vehicle that harvests energy with a 3D-printed golden spiral wind turbine,  I was the Artist in Residence at the School of Visual Arts graduate school of computer art, and I am currently a lecturer in multidisciplinary Feminist Art at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at New York University.

All proceeds go to the Foundation for New American Art. a nonprofit 501 (c3) that brings free Art & Music, to the children of low-income, vulnerable communities.
                                                   







My educational children's TV show THE COLOR WHEEL recently finished shooting Season 1. Here you see me as Dr. Fibonacci teaching art and music using math, science and computer programming.

EVERY WOMAN BIENNIAL CELEBRATES THE ART & NFT MAGIC of PHOEBE LEGERE * TONIGHT!

BREAKING NEWS!

Tonight at Super Chief Gallery! NFT Art by Phoebe Legere is celebrated as part of the Every Woman Biennial!

-------------------------------------------------------













NEWSFLASH: From Phoebe Legere's Facebook Page:
I am thrilled to announce that tomorrow my NFT “Holy Crypto Scroll” will be exhibited at Super Chief Gallery on 11th St.
I just #sold two NFT’s! AMAZING! Why do I #celebrate my sales?
The reason we make art and music is to share it. We hear & see music & art inside our soul. Music & art are bigger than we are. In the not so distant past, if you were born a #female you were suppressed, ignored and didn't have a prayer of being shown in #museums, #galleries, and #Festivals. Your work was assessed at a fraction of the value of male art. You were dismissed as a clown no matter what your content or level of virtuosity. Your value was the size of your breasts and the tightness of your receptacle for male reproductive material. You had to sleep with a boatload of gatekeepers to get "Made" as a superstar. Trust me. That was the cost of admission to the great gladiatorial arena known as the Art & Music #Market.












That is why I love the Every Woman #Biennial and I’m part of it. I hope you will join us as we create a more beautiful future for the women of tomorrow.
To see my full length NFT Holy Crypto Scroll come to the Opening tomorrow! Join the Flash Mob! Experience the #Joy of being fully female.

Update: Medfield Cultural Council Honors Artist Phoebe Legere

In a previous post, we were lucky to see a preview of how the Medfield Cultural Council  is honoring the work of Phoebe Legere with her beautiful painting, "Chuck Paints The Charles."

Here is a preview of more from the upcoming show and celebration of Phoebe, in the artist's own words:

"Last year, at the height of the Pandemic, when all my gigs were canceled and my career was 

kaput, Ron Gustavson (one of my Patreon Patrons) and the Medfield Cultural Council gave me a grant to paint the wetlands and iconic landmarks of Medfield. 

Thank you RON! 

In these paintings you see the Charles River, Medfield Hospital, Ron Gustavson and my design for Bonnet Park. (Medfield employed thousands of young girls in a factory that made Bonnets.)"

Medfield Cultural Council Honors Artist Phoebe Legere

Says Artist Phoebe Legere: "Thank you to the Medfield Cultural Council for inviting me to paint the Charles River and her wetlands. Thank you to all who love art and support the work of environmental artists. We are activists in the cause of conservation."

SPLENDID NIGHT AT NATIONAL ARTS CLUB * Phoebe Legere Painting * SOLD

Beautiful evening at the National Arts Club! Phoebe Legere's painting sold benefiting the Foundation for New American Art, a 501c3 nonprofit Phoebe launched to help restore and create arts education programs for underserved children in low-income communities.

Laura Daly, in a wonderful black and white polka dot dress wearing a hat from her millinery collection and Sue Rakowski, author of "From Sue to Suetastic," joined Phoebe in the celebration. Said Phoebe Legere, "What a marvelous night! Here I am at the National Arts Club. I sold my painting 'The American Art Spirit.' I painted this oil in 2021, en plein air, in Rhinebeck, NY, while standing in the Hudson River. **I love to share my paintings with sensitive people. A painting is really a prayer, a hymn to the amazing beauty of the Universe and Humans."
