Hobey
Thanks for those really great clips

About Pablo Cano
The PofA Southeast regional festival in 2000 was in Fort Lauderdale FL
As I remember, the exhibit was at the Ft Lauderdale Art Museum and Pablo
Cano's work was included.
I had a chance to talk with him. Pablo Cano was very influenced by photos of
cubist puppet figures by Alexandra Exter, a Russian artist and set designer,
living in Paris in the 1920s
