Reclaimed Recap

This recap for the show we curated, Reclaimed, at River’s Edge Gallery is LONG overdue. We were so flattered that so many great artists agreed to be part of the show. Again, the theme revolved around the incorporation of found objects into each peace, which resulted in a varied, yet cohesive work amonst the artists. The work was excellent. Thank you so much to the artists for being part of our show, and all the people that came to the opening.

Reclaimed Preview: Chad Davis
We’re so happy that Chad Davis agreed to be part of Reclaimed. Chad created these two intricate collaged pieces made out of old wood, nails, and assorted metal pieces. Good Stuff.

Reclaimed Preview: Angela Duncan
Angela Duncan is one of our favorite hand letterers and illustrators. While she was visiting her Michigan hometown from LA, she came across an old painting at her mom’s house. Soon, the peaceful fall scenery was overrun by giant bunnies with toothy grins. Every time I look at this piece, I seem to find a new bunny hiding someplace.
Reclaimed opens Friday, October 21, 6-10 pm at Rivers Edge Gallery and runs through November 18.
Reclaimed Preview: Marian Short

Printmaker Marian Short came up with a genius was to use found objects, or in the case images in her piece for reclaimed. Using rubbing from old headstones located at Lodi Cemetery to create this beautiful piece. One would not guess that the subject matter of this piece has such Solomon origins.

Reclaimed Preview: Megan Frauenhoffer

Printmaker Megan Frauenhoffer took a unique approach to the theme or our upcoming group show, Reclaimed, at River’s Edge Gallery. Megan used misprints from previous screenprints to make a collage piece for the show.
