The show brings together a group of artists who research, source and juxtapose images. While it is safe to say most artists working with an element of representation do "find and combine" in some form or another, the interest here is how varied the result can be, in this case, ranging from lenticular prints, to abstractions based on Chinese scrolls to Netherlandish Renaissance tattooed hipsters.

Artists included are: 

Elisabeth Condon Carla Gannis Linda Griggs Amy Hill Judith Simonian Mary Ann Strandell 

The show reminds us that such visual hunting and gathering is an important part of the creative process for artists, particularly now as use of images from newspapers, the internet or art history fall under new copyright and intellectual property laws that threaten their process.  

Join us, Wednesday, September 7th, from 6-8pm for a reception for the artists and the launch of the  new art season at Clemente Soto Velez Cultural Center's Abrazo Interno Gallery.

Sincere thanks to our good friends and neighbors
