Art from Detritus: 20th Anniversary Invitational 

March 3 - April 4, 2015 - Reception: Thursday, March 5, 6-8 pm

The exhibit “Art from Detritus" features fine art from cast-off materials created by professional artists from throughout the world. The heart of this exhibit is the message of the three R's: Reduce/Reuse/Recycle. The exhibition is a juried competition for dynamic, inventive and provocative work created from a multitude of materials that would have been discarded if not rescued for art making. 

Artists: Marcia Bernstein * Taisha Brehaut * Valentina Celada * Ursula Clark * May DeViney * Fred Gutzeit * Sandra Guze * Ed Herman * Elizabeth Featherstone Hoff * Kathleen King * Bernice Sokol Kramer * Iris Lavy * Lee Lee * Kathy Levine * Lynne Mayocole * Garry Noland * Peggy Noland * Carol Quint * Norman Reid * Diane Root * Leonard Rosenfeld * Helaine Soller * Renata Stein * Stephen Soreff * Suprina *Judy Thomas * Sam Weiner * Larry Zdeb * Philip Zuchman

Curated by Vernita Nemec, artist/curator, the first Detritus Exhibition was conceived in 1993 & over the years has received funding from The Puffin Foundation, the Kaufmann Foundation and the National Recycling Coalition. Since then, there have been more than a dozen Detritus exhibitions through out the U.S. You can see information and images of past Detritus shows at www.ncognita.com
