EXHIBIT
COLLAGE: Members’ Fall Theme exhibit
Corkran and Tubbs Galleries
RAL asks its members to consider this iconic art form in making works for the Member's Theme Show. Though centuries old, collage became a significantly important process as Braque and Picasso invented Cubism in the early 20th C. The early modernists explored its many possibilities - and Pop artists broadened its appeal. Collage and assemblage remain vital formal visual art forms today. It starts with glue and continues on with ideas - as the process finds the materials to invest an image with expanded meanings.
Opening reception
Friday, October 5, 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
The public is invited to attend. |
