The dA Center for the Arts is proud to present Textural Play: The Works of Carol Powell and Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know: The Works of Allison Krumwiede on display January 14th through January 28th, 2012. Featuring the works of two up-and-coming Southern Californian artists, together these exhibitions utilize familiar imagery to produce both playful and self-reflective pieces. The dA will be hosting an opening reception on January 14th from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm.
On display in the main gallery, Textural Play: The Works of Carol Powell is an exploration of life’s humorous and tragic circumstances. Powell creates nostalgic story-book style imagery in
her mixed media pieces that combine fabric, paint, marker and vintage collage ephemera. Powell received both a MA in Printmaking and a MFA in Drawing and Painting from California
State University, Fullerton. Her art has been shown and held in various collections including the Santa Barbara Museum, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona and the Santa Monica Museum of Art.
On display in the Joan Weldon Gallery, Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know features newcomer Allison Krumwiede. A recent graduate from the Art Center College of Design, Krumwiede’s
pop culture inspired illustrations bridge the gap between Pop Art and DIY culture. Pieces selected for this exhibition range from zines about River Phoenix to an over-sized Beatles album
cover.
