{"title":"Adam Collier Noel","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"paragraph\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdam Collier Noel graduated in 2002 from Herron School of Art \u0026amp; Design, Indiana University where he received his bachelor of fine arts degree in photography. Through his education he worked to combine diverse materials and techniques with various photographic processes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe subject matter incorporated into the artwork is often appropriated from his extensive collection of one-of-a-kind antique daguerreotypes and mid-century snapshots. Each photograph in his acquisition is chosen because of its ability to simultaneously mirror intimate and universal facets of the human experience. “In a day and age when we are constantly being bombarded with immeasurable amounts of new imagery, I have chosen to create new art forms using vintage photographs that have been forgotten, lost or disregarded. This ambiguous, yet familiar collection of snapshots I have assembled traverses universal cultural themes such as nature, science, history and the physical form. My photography-based mixed media artwork relies heavily on the appropriation of these found images and their relationship to the contemporary world through the lens of popular culture.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEmploying a combination of technological and traditional processes in his paper-based creations gives Adam Collier Noel the opportunity to reinterpret the original history of the found image through an enhanced narrative. His inspiration is derived from the meaning inherent in the found images, as well as the materials with which he pairs them. Blue prints, letters of correspondence, receipts, book pages, etc. are often layered with the photographs to reflect the importance of paper as a transcript of human history and a place where ideas are written and discoveries are documented.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilding upon the rich history of the image creates a transcendence of time and a revitalization of the past, “Much of my work is about optics, ways of seeing and the grand tradition of photography. By appropriating and repurposing found images I give them a new life and a new narrative. I have often expressed that I may not necessarily be the photographer of these relics, but through my artistic interpretation I feel I am their curator.” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecently, Adam Collier Noel traded representational imagery for bold abstraction in a new series of colorful paintings. Using his familiar grid composition, Noel explores formal compositional elements and color theory applications to achieve a rhythmic balance pleasing to the eye. He explains, “The grid has always been a consistent element throughout my artwork. It is a way of bringing order to chaos and organization to disarray. Each color within the framework is carefully chosen and layered to create slight tension with overall harmony.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdam Collier Noel is currently working from his studio in south Florida and exhibiting in galleries in Indianapolis, Fort Lauderdale, Provincetown, Key West and Calgary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"medic-ii","title":"medic II","description":"14” x 14” Inkjet print, graphite, pigment, fireworks, and epoxy watercolor paper","brand":"ADAM COLLIER NOEL","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":7089551237,"sku":"ACN medic II","price":600.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0180\/4007\/products\/948.jpg?v=1444943191"},{"product_id":"stripes-1-red","title":"stripes #1 (red)","description":"14” x 14”\nInkjet print, graphite, pigment, fireworks, and epoxy watercolor paper\n(retired image)","brand":"ADAM COLLIER NOEL","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":7089551621,"sku":"ACN stripes #1 (red)","price":600.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0180\/4007\/products\/952.jpg?v=1444943197"},{"product_id":"oscar-man-overboard","title":"oscar-man overboard","description":"14” x 14”\nInkjet print, graphite, pigment, fireworks, and epoxy watercolor paper","brand":"ADAM COLLIER NOEL","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":7089552069,"sku":"ACN oscar-man overboard","price":600.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0180\/4007\/products\/949.jpg?v=1444943192"},{"product_id":"stripes-2-blue","title":"stripes #2 (blue)","description":"\u003cp\u003einkjet print, graphite, pigment, gun powder, and epoxy watercolor paper (retired image).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e14” x 14” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ADAM COLLIER NOEL","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":7089552325,"sku":"ACN stripes #2 (blue)","price":600.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0180\/4007\/products\/953.jpg?v=1444943198"},{"product_id":"xxx","title":"xxx","description":"14” x 14”\nInkjet print, graphite, pigment, ink, and epoxy watercolor paper","brand":"ADAM COLLIER NOEL","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":7089760837,"sku":"ACN xxx","price":600.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0180\/4007\/products\/954.jpg?v=1444943200"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0180\/4007\/collections\/adam_collier_noel_DaDe_ART_DESIGN_LAB.jpg?v=1563667133","url":"https:\/\/www.bydade.com\/collections\/adam-collier-noel.oembed","provider":"DADE LOFT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
