A replica 1876 photograph captures the elusive Jesse and Frank James alongside the notorious Younger brothers, outlaws whose legend looms large in American lore. Their exploits drew the relentless pursuit of the “Magnificent Seven” posse, led by the resolute Sheriff James Glispin, also pictured here.

Displayed alongside: vintage handcuffs and a jail key mounted on an iron stand, the sheriff’s well-worn wallet, and a circa 1890 toy Colt pistol, objects that echo the chase, the myth, and the justice of the Wild West.

Artist Statement and Biography

After a career in advertising (formerly CEO of Cincinnati-based Northlich), Mark's love for great design, primitive antiques and unusual found objects all converged to form his creation of assemblages.

"Some works convey a message, some an outgrowth of a  personal story, some a flight of fantasy and others are simply compositions that just look and feel right.  Each one has been put through the torture test of long stares.   My work aims to give very special found objects a new life and context."

A collection of Serrianne assemblages were exhibited in February, 2017 at the juried national show of the American Craft Council in Baltimore, Maryland.
