Cultural Guerrillas – The show is up!

The show is hung and ready to go for the opening January 16th! Stop by between 6-8 or visit the gallery… The show dates are 1/16 – 3/11. Plenty of time to stop by! We will probably do a closing reception in March since Mary Jones cannot be here for the opening! Look for posts as we figure out a good date. dja

We establish our identities with the art we consume. Technology, social media, and escalating globalization have altered the relationship of the individual to the collective, and the boundaries of self to the other.

Counter-cultural movements like in the 1960's and 90's focused on the self as it is defined by the limitations and the preconceptions within insular societies. "Cultural Guerrillas" will focus on how contemporary collage and mixed media artists use visual rhetoric as sensory expressions of alternative cultural meaning. Ultimately they move beyond confining representations of the self to one that is not static but evolving de-limiting and mobile.
