Artist: Lisa Guerriero (North Hollywood, CA)
Sales for this work are handled by Pulp Stiction. Payment is made through this page.
Year: 2026 | Medium: New and vintage text and imagery cut out of magazines and a book about the history of Dada, and pasted into a paper collage. The images and text were then seperated onto two pieces of acetate and layered, in order to print two different colors on a Risograph machine. Then I put the finished Riso print in my 1940s typewriter and copied a paragraph from my Dada book. It talks about the views of Dada artists in Zurich, in 1914, during the World War. | Dimensions: 8 ½ x 11 inches | Display: Wall-hung (2D)
Artist Statement
I've always been passionate about Dada art and culture, what it stood for and how it was physically made. When I was looking for artwork to use in my first Risograph workshop, it seemed like something along the lines of Dada were the obvious choice. After my collage was printed in that vibrant red and blue Risograph ink, I felt like it needed one more thing in order to be complete.
Just then, the ICE raids were in full force in Los Angeles. At that same time, I came across a statement put out by some prominent Dada artists written over 100 years ago, that in a very unsettling way, directly correlated to what was happening in the present. They talked about their choice of living as artists in 1914 Zurich during the World War in order to help 'cure the madness of the age'.
About the Artist
Lisa Guerriero grew up in the smoggy suburbs of Los Angeles, California, after emigrating from Canada with her family. Her adventure in the arts began at the Hollywood High School Performing Arts Magnet, where she studied dance and photography. Following her education, she established a reputation in the film industry as a camera assistant on notable motion pictures, including Fight Club, Lost Highway, and the television series Mad Men.
Her Americana photography has been published in well-known outlets, including Smithsonian Magazine, The Guardian, Huffington Post, Wired, Roadtrippers Magazine, and Feature Shoot. Additionally, she has exhibited in group shows across the United States and Europe.
During the Covid lockdown, she turned to making collages and zines out of vintage ephemera from her collection. Lisa now focuses on protest art, because it merges her views on social justice with her current visual medium.
