The changes in American art over the past 50 years culminates in a post-pop art, post neo-dada, post-post modernism movement: New Americana. Through subtle and not so subtle intensity these creators share commonality through uncommon media. The work chosen reflects a neutralization of details and rendering as well as a borrowing of ideas, literal objects, and imagery. This exhibit takes new authority through perversion of former artistic chapters. In New Americana symbolic imagery shifts from the literal Campbell Soup Cans of Warhol, and American Flag of Johns, but still remains the iconography associated with their movements. The populace in New Americana capture, mock, disrespect, honor, and even love the current world with their imagery, all the while drawing from past thinkers and commentators. Bond Street Gallery's past excellence as a traditional space is now being reinvented in a different location, which will now accommodate new media such as sculpture, installation, etc. Once exclusive to photography Bond Street Gallery is now open to submissions from artists of all backgrounds. Our goal is to exhibit and present new and emerging talent and to make art accessible to all collectors. New Americana will be Bond Street's Grand Re-Opening Exhibition and has works from the following artists: Joseph Cavalieri Evan Chamberlain Angela Conant Alicia Flannery Dustin Hinson Christina Kerns Jack McCoubrey Elizabeth Meluch Valerie Patterson Chauney Peck Pontius de La Polaroid Robert Spinazzola Brian Whitely www.bondstgallery.com Please RSVP to New Americana Bond Street Gallery is proud to be sponsored by Sixpoint Craft Ales.  |
