In this class we will explore and understand an art form that uses the jumble of our outer world, those fragments, ads, and volume of information that is our modern “normal” to create create new statements, alternative narratives and of course, a way to express the inexpressible. We will take a new look at the Surrealists, creative Victorian ladies, poets and Monty Python. You will recognize it as collage. "Prior to 1914, collage was a novelty; by 1918, it was a necessity," Billy Renkl - collage artist (Term 1 Class)
