Nancy Reddin Kienholz "Fortune's Cookie," our first collaboration of the year was a mixed media Project with the legendary Nancy Reddin Kienholz. Using a photograph scanned from the book chronicling her work with her husband the late Ed Kienholz as a starting point Nancy explored several avenues with this image captured in the eighties by photographer Marsha Burns. 
Please chick here to view the results of these poignant images from one of Americas greatest artists.       All works are in the collection of the artist.

Kelly Moran:

"There will be a combination of small 3 and 4 colour photo polymer prints and mid size linoleum cut/vintage wallpaper multiples. The images used are vintage but some how have timelessness about them. “Home Sweet Home” is a Linoleum cut of floating Aviators warming a meal over a fire while dreaming of home, which are little pink houses on a made in America vintage wallpaper background. There are also the Siamese twin servants in “Stand your Ground” that are staring defiantly at the viewer as if challenging them to some sort of contest. Maybe a three legged race? Some of the small sized prints depict life saving methods on a background of wallpaper. The men are wearing hats and the women high heels in these prints. Because the life saving image is taken out of context they take on different meaning. The women look like angels in “Lift and Carry” and the men in “Litter” look like ghost pallbearers. These are not big splashy images they are intimate little jewels requiring inspection and contemplation.

In 2005:
Sharon Kopriva:
We ended 2004 with a series of three works "Avenger", "Brooder" and "Observer" by Sharon Kopriva using the polymer photo resist method. Each of these first three images made maximum use of Sharon's energetic drawing style and sense of the dramatic. The images are four colours using two polymer plates. The drawings were done directly on the plates and then burned with an aquatint screen. We started 2005 with two more ambitious works, "Snatched" and "Last Tango." 29"x 38" and 29"x 28" respectively. Both works were included in the New Orleans Triennial.
