Fran Gallun
Reuse, Recycle, UPcycle
Hello everybody! Here again, happily, and with a somewhat more personal statement; a letter perhaps. This show coincides with my 79th birthday, and I can’t help but reflect on my 50+ years of art making. If you were to see my studio, you’d believe it. So much stuff! And I love all of it, down to the last scrap. So the pieces in this show are all created from their forebears. Drawings, paintings, painted papers, newspapers, and cut-outs from other leftovers have been recreated into new work. This is very satisfying on many levels, as you can imagine. It’s like doing jazz improv: you’ve been playing, practicing, trying out new things all these years, so that now, when you come into the studio, you can just begin, and follow the beat. You may recognize familiar shapes, materials, and themes. It’s all there, in this next iteration. This summer I completed a book which shows the trajectory of my work. It’s available for purchase at the front desk. Thanks for visiting.
