New, Colorful Photo Collages by Lola Dupre

Lola Dupre (HF Vol. 28) manipulates photographs sans photoshop, cutting and pasting them into new images entirely by hand. Last time we covered her on the blog, she had taken a break from her figurative works to concentrate on monochromatic, Op Art-inspired abstract designs. But with her latest body of work, Dupre has returned to portraiture, this time unveiling a new body of work in full color. Apart from her personal projects, she recently created a fashion editorial for the Spanish fashion magazine Vein using her signature style.

Silviu and Irina Székley’s Kalaidescopic Collages

Self-taught Romanian collage artists Silviu and Irina Székley consider their works to be “conceptual spontaneities” that distort familiar images into new, transfigured realities. The duo takes traditional images, especially 19th century masterpieces and shatters our expectations through unorthodox manipulation. As the artists say themselves, “Our approach to art is very naïve, ludic and hazardous.”

Claudio Dicochea’s Contemporary Casta Paintings

Mexican artist and arts educator Claudio Dicochea is best known for his contemporary reworkings of 18th century casta paintings, featuring a plethora of media idols and public figures sourced from world history and popular culture. Dicochea describes his work as "a contemporary re-examination of mestizaje, or mixed race identity" that explores "the legacy of colonial representation, hybrid identity, and contemporary media stereotypes."

Heather Gabel Explores Femininity in Her Surreal Xerox Collages

You may already know Heather Gabel, the Detroit based artist behind hundreds of t-shirts and logos for bands like Alkaline Trio, Green Day, and Garbage. Experienced in many mediums, Gabel is also an accomplished collage artist, combining xerox copies with painting, watercolor paper, and photography into her work with a feminine edge. Finding a magic in things past, Gabel aims to capture a timelessness in her work, where femininity, she says, is a result of her personal reverence for the strength that she correlates with women.

On View: Mike Parillo and Ashkan Honarvar at CES Contemporary

Though Mike Parillo's work appears to be a cacophony of colors at a first glance, the artist's abstract oeuvre is executed with the tightness of illustration. His latest series of camouflage-like paintings for his solo show, "Just the Tip" at LA's CES Contemporary, is a wild display of peacock tail hues. The colors take on cloud-like shapes or furry textures, rendered with precise line work that evokes early cartoons. The self-taught Parillo got his start as a commercial illustrator for snowboarding companies in the early '90s and his paintings certainly reverberate with the energy of extreme sports culture and imagery.
