Michael Donnor: Photo NOLA and Art Talk at The Canary Gallery

S I L E N T M O A N:

A VISUAL EXPLORATION OF THE BLURRED TRUTH OF SELF.

This project is my exploration from behind the stage of the greatest show of all... us. It is

my view of false projections, fortresses of a facade, and the egos that stand upon them.

The fragile truth that is covered up can be many things: a secret best not shared, an event

best forgotten, a failure best not remembered, or perhaps a dead dream that will not rest.

Whichever the case, they are all a part of us that we will carry; the past that is a silent

moan.

The process begins with the negative; the decision of how to destroy it and decay it is

about looking further than when the shutter was released. The prints are silver gelatin;

archivally toned in selenium, and uniquely stained in tea. They are signed, dated, titled

and editioned in ink by the artist own hand. The edges are then burned and beeswax is

applied in layers, finishing each piece from conception to print.

They are one of a kind within an edition; from the tones to the lettering, burning and wax

finish. No two prints are the same.

Meet the Artist: Saturday, November 6th from 6pm -9pm

Show up through November

Tony Nozero is having his solo opening night at The Canary Gallery on Saturday, September 4th, from 6pm until 9pm. His rich colored acrylic paintings infused with the beauty of Tony's talent, rage, and wonder will fascinate even the most stoic of observers. Come celebrate with us, have some wine, see some local art!

Tony Nozero at The Canary Gallery

Tony Nozero planted ten of his colorful raw acrylic paintings in the Canary Gallery for his opening night on Saturday, August 7th...and rocked White Linen Night. His theme is basically oil and our abuse of it in our lifestyle... a real eye- opener. His show will be up until the end of September so anyone who didn't get down for the opening will hopefully head down soon.
We also have Derek Nehrbass' pieces up until the end of August. His bar napkins and Fema trailers are the best eye candy you'll find in this town.
See you there!

"Water Stories"

Derek Bowen Nehrbass
b. Lafayette Louisiana, 1982
BFA Printmaking from UNO 2006.

The CANARY Gallery is pleased to present to New Orleans, the first large collection of prints and drawings from Lafayette, LA native Derek Nehrbass. Nehrbass' view of New Orleans both pre and post-K is seen through sketches on bar napkins to do-it-yourself paper models of FEMA trailers. Nehrbass' complex woodcut about piled up shotguns called "Babel" as well as large scale drawing transposing Dante's Inferno over the lower 9th Ward New Orleans, delve into the complexity of the city's struggle and shifting evoltution as told through pen and ink sketches. Most of these sketches were culled from Nehrbass' large collection of old bar napkins that he has collected from his many patrons over the years, bartending at the late night hip bar, The Saint.
