Acadiana Center for the Arts announces the opening of the CuriousArt: The Fascinating Assemblage of George Graham exhibition, on view from August 10 through September 21, 2024.
The art world is set to be captivated by the unique creations of Lafayette-based artist George Graham, an award-winning adman, writer, photographer, and author who has delved into the world of visual art through his intriguing assemblage style. Graham’s art defies easy categorization, transcending the boundaries of traditional mixed media and inviting viewers to embark on a journey through quirky ideas and off-the-wall perspectives.
Each three-dimensional piece is a self-contained story that brings the viewer into a distinctive, sometimes peculiar, world in which the interpretation is up to the individual. His artistry brings new life to discarded materials, recycled objects, and flea-market treasures, resulting in intricately detailed works that challenge conventional creative norms. Graham’s unique approach is firmly rooted in the assemblage genre, an art form dating back to the early twentieth century.
