Art Gallery Exhibit At The Jewish Community Center Presents THOUGHTS ALONG THE WAY
The Art Gallery, located in the Jewish Community Center of Greater Buffalo Holland Family Building, is pleased to present a solo exhibit by artist Daniel Rodgers. The exhibit entitled, "Thoughts Along the Way", opens November 1, 2018 and will be on view through December 28, 2018.
Almost entirely self-taught, Rodgers' repertoire includes forays into collage, décollage, photomontage and assemblage. The exhibit showcases the differences in the various mediums. Décollage in effect, is the opposite of collage, wherein, several layers (of paper) are uncovered, or exposed. Photomontages are often composed of photographs of disparate scale and proportion. Many examples of this art-form employ humorous elements. At times, photomontage can include brushwork, typography, even found objects.
"Born and raised in Buffalo, my working class background has taught me to appreciate the value of using recycled material - from old magazines to old fire bricks - in my art endeavors," says Rodgers. Unique to the exhibit are fire bricks. As Rodgers describes, "These are bricks which I rescued from the curbside several years ago. They are well over a hundred years old," says Rodgers.
Rodgers' work has appeared in the Burchfield Penney Art Gallery, the Erie (PA) Museum of Art, the annual Artists in Buffalo open galleries, the Bunis Family Art Gallery, and 1045 Elmwood Gallery of the Arts.
A free gallery reception, open to the community, will take place in the Art Gallery at the JCC Holland Family Building, Sunday, November 4, 3:00-5:00 p.m.
Gallery admission is free and the gallery is open during JCC business hours, 7 days a week. For more information, visit jccbuffalo.org.
