About the Item
Margaret Roleke has created the sculpture “Pop,pop” specifically for the Las Gravitas exhibition at ODETTA. The title refers both to the fun and colorful hues of the piece that pop and also to the “pop, pop “ noise produced by a gun. “Pop,pop” is a beautiful colorful lyrical work, but at the same time it is disturbing since it is created by stringing spent shotgun shells together.
From a distance the viewer is not always aware of what these colorful shells are. On closer examination one sees the branding of each shell and can also smell a faint aroma of gunpowder.
Roleke’s ntention is to create a free flowing engaging piece; but one that also questions the massive amount of plastic and lead waste in additions to commenting on our country’s need for gun control and our constant struggle with violence using guns.
For the past several years she has been committed to fighting for gun control and donates a percentage of all art sales to organizations that support this cause.
Margaret Roleke is a sculptor who also creates prints and “mail art”. She has lived and worked in New York and Connecticut for most of her life. Exhibitions include Concepto Hudson Gallery in Hudson, NY , Art Space New Haven, Governor’s Island, ODETTA, among other venues.
Roleke’s work has been reviewed in The New York Times, Hyperallergic, Artnet News and additional publications.

View AllMargaret Roleke, We Do Our Part, 2018, monoprint, collage, silkscreen, 30 x 22
By Margaret Roleke
Located in Darien, CT
Margaret Roleke's work explores sensationalism, consumerism and the crazy contradictions and relationships that develop when popular culture mixes with war and religion. The Trump presidency has pushed her to be further involved as a political activist and artist. Many new pieces deal with protest and resistance.
But the major theme which she has been exploring for several years is gun violence. Using spent shotgun shells and brass, as well as, paper targets in much of her work, from a distance the viewer is not sure what these colorful spent shotgun pieces are. Only upon closer examination does one realize that they are actually made from spent bullets. The environmental plastic waste is also an issue she explores in her work. A percentage of all of Roleke's sales are donated to organizations that work for gun control.
Roleke's new silkscreens and cyanotypes deal with the issues of putting families in cages, and the dismantling of the ideas of life, liberty and justice for all...

“I still look at and learn from the art of the past, and enjoy making interpretations of works which I admire.” Henry Moore
Infanta, Floating Balance, Point in Time, and Visionary are monoprints with Chine collé from Suzanne Benton's Paintings in Proust series. This grouping also includes the dry-point etching with Chine collé. Infanta (edition of 10). The monoprints (unique prints) employ the collage technique, chine collé (glued paper). Collé papers are pre-inked and hand-painted. Dimensional printing plates emboss texture onto the prints. The plates are inked individually for each solo print. The images and collé papers are then laid onto the plate and adhere to the printmaking paper as the plate and paper run through the etching press.
Other monoprint series have been devoted to Indian and Turkish miniature painting...
