Five years in the wake of the storm, we discover Katrina's imprint on the creative expression of each artist.

The photographers include: Eric Julian, Elizabeth Kleinveld, Rowan Metzner, David Rae Morris, Thomas Neff, Sam Portera, Frank Relle, Jen Shaw, Mark Sindler, Zack Smith, Jonathan Traviesa and Lori Waselchuk.

19 Mar 2010: Loosing Nature
The irresistible Denise Rosenboom is about to occupy the window gallery at the Bonairestreet. Maybe her talented paintings will shock the neighbors.
Denise Rosenboom (1979) imaging artist, paints and draws, she lives and works in Amsterdam. Her work tends to be somehow macabre, graphical and personal she is driven by anxiety and fear for unfulfilled dreams. Rosenboom creates an unrealistic world as she tries to escape the multiple choice society of our times. In her world there is no choice, because possibilities are infinite and that is why we have to face alarming though hilarious images.Meanwhile exiting testimony of her personal life.

02 Oct 2007: FRANCO FONTANA 1987 - 2007 POLAROIDS
New Polaroids arrived!
Photography, writing with light is certainly still magic, one click leads through mysterious cemistry to develop and realize an image. But Fontana doesn't restrict himself to just the image, he transforms it to something else, probably curious about other people's life, about moments that are never his, panorama's presumable real but felt differently, dreams that were dreamt by other people somewhere one has not been. Like Elias Canetti wrote what could be the motive of every artist: "Nobody resists without a borrowed life, our own is not enough".
There are landscapes in the mind that surpass those that casually could happen in front of our eyes and they are superior. They are made of so many of those things that we do not even know where and when and how: a book we read, or a song, the memory of a person or the wish to forget, an instant moment or a long run of years, Fontana, with his brilliant simplicity (apparent simplicity, as matters from the mind and from the heart appear in a complicate way) registers this and meanwhile gives space by suggesting to enable us to fill in with our own memories.from our times, with all our own fantasmagoria as everyone of us makes.
Francesco Guccini
