Talks about the art of collage
An afternoon with and about art in the GrenzBlickAtelier
TALKS ON THE ART OF COLLAGE
After the success of the "Talks on Painting" and the "Talks on Photography", the series will be continued with the topic "Collage". Again, all interested visitors are welcome to talk about their own approach, thoughts and perspectives on this art technique.
The artist Kristie Legters from Winterswijk and the artist Klaus Cordes from Bocholt will talk about their approach to collages, how they come to the themes and which materials are used.
The word collage comes from the French: "coller" means to glue, to glue. A collage is therefore made up of several materials or parts. A collage can be made of objects or pieces of fabric, paper, photos, adhesive tape - whatever can be attached to a base. A new work of art is created from individual lines.
In the twentieth century, Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso, among others, established collage as an art form. Famous collage artists include Max Ernst, Kurt Schwitters and Raoul Hausmann. Later, the collage technique also included art forms such as film and music.
We ask Kristie Legters (NL) and Klaus Cordes (D) what is it about their motifs? What determines the expressiveness of their collages? Do they follow guidelines for an aesthetic aspect? Where do they get their inspiration? There are endless approaches to thinking about the art of collage - and that is exactly what the GrenzBlickAtelier would like to invite you to: an afternoon about art!
The public is once again cordially invited to exchange ideas together. Treat yourself to a cosy afternoon of art at the GrenzBlickAtelier.
At the same time, the finissage of the exhibition will also take place on this day.
Saturday, 2 September at 3 p.m.
