Kelly Moran, Beg Borrow and Steal: Opening
reception Saturday April 27, 2012 from 6 to 8 PM at d. m. allison on Colquitt
Kelly Moran's latest offering is a zany
mixed bag of happy urban myth and late American culture POP to be sure,
but at the same time so well executed that one wants to stop and think
it all over. Moran takes advantage of an omnipotent time frame while jumping
gender fences, and looking back at "the way we were" just far enough in
the past to clue us into the fact that the human chemistry found in her
works is universal.

medium on paper, 32"x 40",
y. 2010
Moran excels at making the complex planning
and process oriented work look inspired and of the moment. Her images are
gleaned from the internet junk heap, vintage magazines and advertising,
while working in woodcuts, lino-cuts, and some parts created with the latest
digital technology and archival digital printing. There is plenty of Yin
and Yang for everyone in the show.
