An exhibition currently on display at Danziger Projects shows work by two contrasting collagists, each with their own pictorial charms. “Based
 on
 the
 artists’
 interest
 in
 the
 practice
 of
 collage
 as
 well
 as
 their
 longstanding
 friendship,
 the
 exhibition
 presents
 two
 quite
 different
 expressions
 of
 the
 medium,” according to the gallery.
 “Pierson’s
 collages
 are
 made 
from 
cut 
photographic 
c‐prints 
while 
Puckette’s 
are
 assembled 
works 
made 
on 
heavy handmade 
artist’s 
papers.

 The 

links 
are 
the 
beauty 
and 
strength 
of 
the 
finished 
pieces
 and 
the 
skill 
and 
originality 
of 
their 
execution.

”

Jack Pierson and Elliott Puckette: Collage runs through April 30 at Danziger Projects, 534 West 24th Street, between 10th and 11th avenues, 212-629-6778, danzigerprojects.com.

Franklin Einspruch is an artist and writer.
