Upon receiving a dozen drafting tables that had been well used at Frank Lloyd Wright Taliesin West Studio but discarded during renovations, Brekan knew what he needed to do.

Each 40×54 table surface has been transformed into collage and mixed media works dedicated to the iconic architect, and will be on view at The Neutra Museum in Silverlake this month in Absolutely Wright, new work by Ralph Michael Brekan. Fitting that Dulce Stein’s curatorial project is hosting the event inside a venue operated by the scion of another great architectural dynasty, as the works themselves approach history, artistry, and the contemporary landscape.

Absolutely Wright

These are artworks composed from recycled theatrical lighting filters. 

Recycled Plastic Collage (c. 2008 - 2018)

Working from color laser prints and found images, I chose to employ the California Assemblage collage techniques of the West coast pop art movement to execute these surreal thematic images.

Paper Colle (c. 2001-2008)

Working from found images, I chose to employ the California Assemblage collage techniques of the West coast pop art movement to execute this timeless portrait with xerographic prints, theatric gels, gold leaf and wax crayons.
