"The Human Face is a Monument" Exhibition
Guild & Greyshkul
This event has ended.
The Human Face is a Monument presents a continuum: a lineage of ideas, processes, and execution that connects all of the participating artists and spans generations. Within the exhibition, collage is treated as an approach and not just an activity or technique. Whether an artist has found context or raw material in extant images, the collage approach encompasses a re-presentation and manipulation of images in order to alter meaning from the original source. The social life of photographic images: engaging in war, politics, identity, adornment, performance, is put into play in large part through the use of figurative images, while the underlying chaos of our culture is manifested in the disruption,
cutting, splicing, quoting, re-photographing, and pasting of discrete images.
