The term “saverio cine digital works” is something of a puzzle to me, but his explanations did clarify the process to the satisfaction of other visitors present. (I’m pretty dense when it comes to art processes, lol.) For information regarding that (and his works in general), go to: http://www.saveriocine.com
I was there yesterday. (See the article profiling Woodrow Barlettani, posted yesterday.) Today Teresa pointed out additional pieces I missed seeing yesterday:
And, btw, Woody had many more of his cartoon work on the bed (in addition to what was displayed yesterday. I gave him a few dollars to help with the room cost and he insisted I take one of the used books he had (in exchange for donations), so I took “A Calvin and Hobbes Collection” by Bill Watterson. This book is a graphic novel called “Weirdos From Another Planet”.
uh....do I need text for this?

Many Renoites miss Woody and his popular hot dog stand, once a regular part of the downtown landscape. Sometime in 2007 (as I remember hearing about it from an elderly and young neighbor in the course of recruiting volunteers for the caucus), he suffered a health crisis. When I told Woody today at his temporary “art gallery” in Room 122 of the TownHouse Motor Lodge (which he is sharing with artist John Werner) that I used to buy hot dogs from him, he shared how he developed congestive heart failure. For a long time, he said, he limited himself to one polish dog per week, but when he ate more of them (thus ingesting too much sodium nitrate), his health problems surfaced.
And, he goes way back to the counter cultural scene, his cartoons appearing in the old Berkeley Barb. (God, that brings back the memories.) I remember a couple of years back that the Reno News and Review did a great profile on that period of his life. (Yes, he knew Robert Crumb, who he reports now lives in Paris.)
"Oh...you want me to pose? Okay."
(BTW, in addition to many, many pieces of cartooning pieces, Woody has a bunch of used books on the bed there in Room 122, which you can get with a donation helping him to pay for the room. Please help in that department. I will be doing so before the weekend is up.)
