Collage is often thought of as a modern artistic technique. The word collage "from the French verb coller, meaning to stick " was first used to describe the Cubist innovations of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, who began to stick newspaper cuttings and other materials onto their canvases in 1912.
This exhibition features artists from both Canada and the US which came from a call for artists we posted 6 months ago. We do this on occasion so we could bring some new artists to our gallery and to share the perspective of these artists in our City.
And even though we live in an age of advanced technology and AI, all the artists featured in this exhibition cut paper and use glue to make their artwork.
Artist talk: November 18 at 2pm. Free and open to the public.
