Adrian Gollner
Simon Dragland
Dates Showing: Novemeber 19th - December 20th, 2000
Simon Dragland presents a multi-media commentary on popular culture. A film-maker and photographer, Dragland incorporates music, film, and decomposing or antiquated objects into his investigation of physical, theoretical and social structures, how they function, and how we navigate our way through them.
Adrian Gollner offers a tongue-in-cheek look at popular media, suburban aesthetics, and boyhood's fascination with war in general -- the Cold War in particular. Gollner's multi-media approach includes poster-sized images of cold-war themes such as might appear on collector's cards. The artist has launched a 'Cold War' website, which may be accessed using the computer placed in the gallery for this purpose. 'Cold War' collector's cards will be available for purchase by gallery visitors.
