Kiosk Gallery

11/02/2025

Announcing the final two exhibitions at Kiosk:

In March 2026, we will close the gallery and do not plan to seek another “brick and mortar” location. Cofounders Eric and Erin Dodson have recently shifted focus toward their own studio and professional practices, limiting the time and attention needed for an artist-run exhibition space.

After working with hundreds of artists over the past 13 years, we’re deeply grateful for everyone who has trusted us with their work, energy, and ideas. Our hope is that the care and enthusiasm we poured into Kiosk will continue to live on in this city’s ever-evolving ecosystem of artists making things happen, and we’re always here to cheer on and support those building spaces of their own.

Filling out the remainder of the exhibition schedule:

November 14th - January 9th: “Drink the Long Draught” - a group show including work by Corey Antis, Braden Bandel, Annie Diemer, Bella Ferreira, Melanie Johnson, Ian Kelley, Cotter Luppi, Baron Mattern, Andy Maugh, SunYoung Park, Stefan Schulz, Courtney Tramposh, Claire Downes Whitehurst, Nika Winn.

February 20th - March 21st: “Beloved” by Kate Clements

We would love for you to join tonight, November 17, as Kiosk Gallery presents An Echo of an Echo, a solo exhibition of paintings by Samantha Haan. Due to illness, Eric and Erin will not be in attendance.

In these works, Haan explores linguistic structures through the use of coded systems of an iterative nature. By introducing a system of permutations from a limited set of possible symbols, she invites an element of chance into the process of producing unique compositional variations.

Artist’s Reception:

Open Hours:
Saturdays 12-4 pm, and by appointment

We hope you’ll join us on 3rd Friday, September 15, as Kiosk Gallery presents Picture in Picture, a solo exhibition of collages by Garry Noland. These works evoke nostalgic references to mass media from times past, while playfully and critically subverting the messages of their original intent.

Artist Statement:
Called “Altered Photographs,” as a whole, this series incorporates printed images mostly from mid-century National Geographic and flea market finds.

The works are several things. They are critiques of nostalgia. These illustrations from the 1940s -1970s depict our nation’s (and the industrialized west’s) view of themselves as being on the top of the heap. I want to step into these mid-century mass media illustrations, alter the way we’re seeing them and take a stab at changing the meaning of them.

They are formal/technical exercises in how to make a successful work of art. How can I make something and get people to stop and ask themselves, “How did they make that?” for the form of the piece? How can I get them to stop and ask themselves, “What is the narrative here?” for the content of the piece? When that exchange happens, viewers assume the key role in completing a work of art.

They are made using traditional analog collage techniques. Some of the newer pieces use décollage (the removal of paper or ink) and/or decalcomania (transfer printing). Occasionally multiple, identical collage elements are used in the images to question ideas about originality and reproduction.

Bio:
Garry Noland began his studio practice after earning a BA in History of Art from UMKC in 1978. In addition to being an artist, Noland also operates Holsum Gallery, an artist-run space in the West Bottoms.
