Colette Saint Yves

collage to encourage destruction of binary gender systems
(prints of this one are for sale on etsy)







lie on your back with one eye open



vandal



vacancy



our mother the mountain





the end draweth near



the minuades of dionysos



to the wolves

Karel Teige

turn of the century surreal collagist and typographer from prague





the first time I saw this image, I gasped out loud and had to find out more about this artist.





collage 28

















"Karel Teige exploited the physicality of collage as a medium to superb effect: with scissors and glue he constructs poetic reality as a concrete visual image. Photographic snippets of the real world are extracted from their original contexts and rebuilt into a dreamscape of absurd juxtaposition. Teige's photo-collages have an authority that would be difficult to achieve in painting. He exploits the human belief in the photographic image to make his surreal assemblages plausible on a certain level, as this is important in creating something convincingly imaginary." - mark hearld
