From photomontage to digital collage, this is a superb visual celebration of the art of collage. Collage is an artistic technique where works are made from an assemblage of different forms - anything from photographs to newspaper, found objects to other artworks - to create a whole new work. Although its origins can be traced back hundreds of years, the technique became popular during the 20th century when artists such as Pablo Picasso began using it to added layers of complexity to their works. It has continued to grow in popularity as an art form, especially as the rise in use digital tools has brought it to the attention of a whole new generation of artists. Collage: Illustrations Cut & Paste brings together the most exciting and innovative works from some of the most talented artists using the technique today.
