The Holland Arts East Gallery is pleased to present Found & Collected, A Vintage Showcase by Rank & File. Found & Collected runs December 2nd–December 30th and can be viewed during Yellowbird Coffee Bar’s hours of operation, Mon-Fri 7am-5pm, Sat-Sun 8am-5pm. Please Join us December 5th from 6pm-8pm in the Holland Arts East Gallery for an opening reception.
This exhibition explores the rich tapestry of artistic expression from the mid-20th century, highlighting a curated selection of vintage artworks that have been discarded and rediscovered. Featuring pieces from renowned and unknown artists alike, “Found & Collected” invites viewers to engage with art that is “vintage” or at least 25-100 years old.
Each piece has been thoughtfully sourced to tell a story of its own. From original prints and paintings to posters and paint-by-numbers, this collection emphasizes the potential of personal nostalgia. Each were “found” in diverse settings, from estate sales to flea markets, and “collected” into an exploration of artistic heritage.
“Found & Collected” not only celebrates the visual aesthetics of the 1950s to 1980s but also invites reflection on the enduring impact of art from the past and its resonance today.
