The artist Doris Chase, who split her life between Seattle and New York and who is most visibly represented here by two bronze abstract sculptures (one at left, atop Queen Anne) that actually don't tell you all that much about her life's work (which was just as focused on video and performance as painting and sculpture), died on December 23 at her apartment at Horizon House.

A public memorial service is scheduled for her at 2 pm January 9 at University Unitarian Church, 6556 35th Ave NE.

A public/online memorial of a sort is represented by this a great essay on her life at HistoryLink. (Deloris Tarzan Ament and Patricia Failing also have books out on her.)

But might we have an actual art exhibition to remember her and to examine her influence?
