\n9 artists 49 collages
\n
\nIn these digital days it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s refreshing to see walls full of cut and glued images, crooked lines in colored pencil, torn edges, finger prints on dirty paper, romance and skulls, lines of a paintbrush in glue, handwork that you can see.
\n
\nThis Friday, Mar. 26th 7-10pm
\n
\nAll cut and paste collage from 9 artists with uniquely different viewpoint on the medium.
\n
\nLeo Fitzpatrick: Discovered by Larry Clark skating in NY, he was quickly cast in the cult classic film Kids. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s gone onto other critically acclaimed roles in The Wire, Serendipity, Bully, etc. Aside from acting, he has found time to bring his minimal collage aesthetic to several group art shows in LA and NY, and will be showing 8 pieces from his new work taking apart and reassembling from romance novels.
\n
\nWill Bryant: aka \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Mr. Fancy Pants\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is a graphic designer \/illustrator currently living in Austin Texas.\tHe\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s part of the Public School creative group and has shown at several group shows in the US and Europe.
\n
\nLola Dupr\u00c3\u00a9: Lola lives and works in Glasgow, Scotland. She has won several awards and is constantly showcased in European art magazines and had the cover of LA\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s own Flaunt Magazine for last year\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s art issue. Lola, in a brutal display of cleverness, decided long ago that all of her collages would come from a single photograph; printed several times in order to achieve her desired effect. The result is a very refreshing take on this art form.
\n
\nDanger: Owner of famed occult \/ rare books shop KOMA. Danger\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s style is on some next level esoteric vibe. Keep in mind all of his pieces are hand cut using a 99-cent pair of scissors, an exacto-knife, and he uses his own secret unique gluing technique, that creates a seamless painting of images. Keep in mind all of the images come from LIFE, old National Geographic magazines, and other mainstream mags.
\n
\nLuis Farfan: THIS agent, freelance graphic designer \/ art director and proud resident of Downey (via central Mexico) is definitely taking a stab at re-interpreting pop-art, though he would not readily admit it.
\n
\nAaron Farley: Aaron\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a full time photographer, full time dad and full time THIS agent, a busy man to say the least.\tLast year he began a collage project (which would lead to this show) where he would work with images exclusively found in that day\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s LA TIMES.
\n
\nDanny Gibson: Graphic Designer and all around nice guy, Danny lives and works in Los Angeles. His work is surreal, abstract, and sometimes modern. No description could really do his work justice.
\n
\nJoe McKay: Artist and proud new dad, Joe\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s worked with a whole slew of stuff including the new album cover for Broken Social Scene. He regularly shows in various group shows around the country.
\n
\nNatasha Sud: Natasha\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s name was sent to us right after the cards were printed, but we had to add her on. If only for the beautiful work on the Watson\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Twin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s albums. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s like a dream. Relationships, of animal headed people, horses holding flowers, all on a rug patterned sky. Her work is beautifully illustrative and colorful, and is a perfect match with all our other artists.
