COLIN DOUGLAS GRAY & ADAM FREZZA

 

Animal Friends is a collaborative collage project by New York-based artists Adam Frezza & Colin Douglas Gray. The duo utilizes hand-cut paper collage culled from a vast collection of both popular and esoteric published source material. Each piece is simultaneously humorous, playful, curious, and beautiful. Begun in 2009, with Colin and Adam as co-workers at a Manhattan art supply shop, the collages quickly developed from a way to kill time at work into an impressive and established series. In the fall of 2010 the duo was commissioned by the New York Post to create a large format fold out poster spread, introducing digital source material to their process. This commission introduced the idea of creating digital prints of their hand-made efforts to a wider audience in a series of editioned professional prints. Limited prints are now available for the first time at Van Rensburg Galleries
