NORA LIGORANO and MARSHALL REESE collaborate together as Ligorano/Reese.
Collaboration is the framework behind our work, blending each of our diverse talents into a singular voice and vision.
Our pursuit is an ongoing investigation into the impact of technology on culture and the associations and meanings that the media brings to images, language and speech.
We use unusual materials and processes to make our limited edition multiples, videos, sculptures and installations. We take and manipulate images, audio and text from old media: print, television, radio, woven textiles, and other forms to combine them with the new: internet and mobile telecommunications.
We have received funding and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Jerome Foundation, the New York State Council for the Arts, the Puffin Foundation, Art Matters, NYFA and been artists in residence at Montalvo Arts Center, Eyebeam Center for Art and Technology, Djerassi Resident Artists Program, the MacDowell Colony, and STEIM.
