Curated Showing of Collage Artists<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at Ferrara Showman Gallery in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA
25-29 June 2025 (for Kolaj Fest New Orleans<\/a>)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Ferrara Showman’s Viewing Room during Kolaj Fest New Orleans, the gallery presents New Orleans-based artists who incorporate elements of collage in their work: Tony Dagradi explores the visual possibilities of altered books. Choosing vintage and antiquarian texts, he carefully cuts through one page at a time utilizing existing images to create a three-dimensional collage or sculpture; assemblage artist Kat Flyn uses vintage materials to create work that addresses American politics and history;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ann Marie Auricchio’s work examines vulnerability while giving form to uncomfortable realities we face within and in opposition to ourselves, inviting viewers to recognize their own processes of psychological navigation and embodied experience; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jelly Roll Plays for the Girls Upstairs on a Slow Night<\/em> by Gina Phillips
47″x72″; fabric and thread on acrylic underpainting; 2024. Courtesy of the artist and Ferrara Showman Gallery. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gina Phillips’ work is characterized by a raw, narrative quality whose most common narrative characteristic is tragicomedy. The people and\/or animals that tell the story often embody a magical realism; and Aim\u00e9e Farnet Siegel, whose non-objective two and three-dimensional works investigate the energy created by complementary and contradictory forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
