Contemporary Collage
|
Delving into the history of collage in Art, students will react to Still Life through paper and mixed media. From making collage papers, to application and integration, this course will offer a fully immersive approach to making collaged works.
Participants will begin studying the works of the original heros of collage - Picasso and Braque. Through their use of collage within drawing, and their understanding of flattened forms their work had great impact on the movement of Modern Art, and it is here that the building block of the course will be made. Throughout the course, participants will be encouraged to make and collect papers that will inform their visual language. Using drawing materials, acrylic and oil paint, the course will culminate in an individual body of works inspired by the processes of the course. |
