Elvis, meets Paul Newman. Unsuspecting beachgoers in “Jaws” bleed out in a jumble of technicolor de Kooning scribbles. Danny and Sandy tap away on a dance floor; not made of gym-class linoleum, but rather a pink-streaked Helen Frankenthaler painting. These unlikely duos can only mean one thing… esteemed artist and friend of the gallery, Bonnie Lautenberg, is coming to town! Her innovative photography collection, “Artistica! Where Hollywood Meets Art History,” melds two perennially prevalent but distinctly demarcated cultural forces: the austere, highbrow world of high art, and Hollywood’s whirlwind. Her compositions pair famous films and pieces of art from the same year, capturing the creative landscape of a year and creating an invaluable time capsule for a particular cultural moment.
