“Collage Pedagogy” at the Kolaj LIVE Knoxville Symposium

I’m excited to be presenting a paper on Collage Pedagogy at the Kolaj LIVE Knoxville Symposium at the Knoxville Museum of Art. From the evening of Friday, November 5th to Sunday, November 7th, 2021, artists, curators, and writers will gather for a weekend of collage making, slideshows, exhibition visits, and storytelling that deepen our understanding of collage as a medium, a genre, a community, and a 21st century movement.

The session “Collage Pedagogy: Teaching Collage” will include Joshua Field – Professor of Art in Foundations at Tennessee Tech University , Billy Renkl – Professor of Art: Drawing and Illustration, Austin Peay State University, and Kolaj Institute Coordinator and founder of The Mystic Krewe of Scissors and Glue, Christopher Kurts.

“And Grace Will Lead Us Home” (above) is included in The Big Show: All Animals Welcome at Drawing Rooms in Jersey City, NJ opens on December 14, 2019 and runs through February 8, 2020

“The earliest art images known to man were cave paintings which depicted animals to help tell the story of their lives, giving animals a mythic and symbolic presence. Artists have continued to be interested in animals as subject matter. Peaceable Kingdom by Edward Hicks takes its theme from a passage in the bible which tells of the animals gathering together in harmony, Guernica by Picasso tells a story of war, Deborah Butterfield’s horses are a metaphorical substitute for herself, Louise Bourgeois’ spiders allude to the strength of her mother, and were used as a symbol of nurturing and protection.”

The Book As a Place for Collage

Honored to have a spread in “The Book as a Place for Collage” by Maison Kasini and available through Kolaj Magazine. “The companion to COLLAGE::BOOKS, a symposium about the role of publishing in collage, considers as a point of departure that the book, not the gallery, is the best place to experience collage. In this book, Kolaj Magazine Editor Ric Kasini Kadour investigates this idea using examples from the magazine’s collection of collage books and work by presenters at the symposium, Kadour traces the history of collage publishing, offers a taxonomy of various publishing activities, and discusses the function of the book in art practice, for art professionals, for viewer or collector. The book includes a statement identifying strategies for supporting the book as a means of distribution and (like exhibition) as a viable and respected part of an artist’s practice.”
