MERZ movement.
Kurt Schwitters. (1887-1948).
Kurt Schwitters is acknowledged as the twentieth century’s greatest master of collage. Merz has been called ‘Psychological Collage’. Most of the works attempt to make coherent aesthetic sense of the world around Schwitters, using fragments of found objects. These fragments often make witty allusions to current events. (Merzpicture 29a, Picture with Turning Wheel, 1920. for instance, combines a series of wheels that only turn clockwise, alluding to the general drift Right across Germany after the Spartacus Uprising in January that year, whilst Mai 191(9), alludes to the strikes organized by the Bavarian Workers’ and Soldiers’ Council.)
Kurt Schwitters, Mai 191(9)
Autobiographical elements also abound; test prints of graphic designs; bus tickets; ephemera given by friends. Later collages would feature proto-pop mass media images. (En Morn, 1947, for instance, has a print of a blonde young girl included, prefiguring the early work of Eduardo Paolzzi and many works seem to have directly influenced Robert Rauschenberg who said after seeing an exhibition of Schwitters’ work at the Sidney Janis Gallery, 1959, that; “I felt like he made it all just for me.”).
He was to use the term Merz for the rest of his career. While these works were usually collages incorporating found objects, such as bus tickets, old wire and fragments of newsprint, Merz also included artist’s periodicals, sculptures, sound poems and what would later be called installations.
Kurt Schwitters experimented with abstract and expressionist painting before becoming involved with the Dada movement, an artistic philosophy based primarily on incongruity, absurdism, and nonsense. Although he associated with the Dadaists and his works shared many similarities to theirs, Schwitters preferred to refer to his own artistic efforts under the separate title “Merz”– a meaningless word Schwitters derived by taking the middle syllable from the German word “kommerzbank” (“commercial bank”)
“What springs to mind when trying to characterize his personality is one word: ‘paradox’.”

JESSE TREECE,
EVOLUTION IS COLD
Jesse Treece,
The Tipping Point.
Jesse Treece is a collage artist living in Seattle whose work screams of the simple, yet ever complex, interpretations of both the mundane and whimsical facets of life. He’s somehow managed to mix both the regular and absurd, beautiful and disturbing and put them into images that you find you could get lost in for hours. His tools of the trade include scissors, glue and vintage magazines/books.

last words
2013
H leads T, his son, after a day of gathering in the strategic border area, rich in potential. What, I wonder, will become of the so-called primitives? One day, perhaps, I will know. I remember their last words to me, the alien they befriended: “You will have to come back. We want you to live with us.”

Scott Dickson.
http://beautifuldecay.com/2013/01/16/scott-dicksons-hidden-monuments/
Scott Dickson‘s series Moment Monument is a juxtaposition like the artwork. Using vintage postcards as collage material, Dickson obscures the monuments that are the intended subject of the photographs. Using the vintage photos and geometric forms, Dickson relieves the monuments of their narrative and posterity. This allows a second look at the monuments physical context – it’s pedestal, its surrounding, the space it in inhabits. More importantly, though, it encourages a second look at monument’s conceptual context – the meaning of commemoration and memory through sculpture.

Mary Lum Geometric Collage Art
artist Mary Lum, exploring cities with her camera, uses the images of overlooked spaces she captures as the basis for her colorful geometric collages.
Richard Galpin.
This book “Surface to Surface – Richard Galpin” documents the development of Galpin’s work with his unique ‘peeled photograph’ technique – from the early works based on snapshots of London shop signs, to the latest large scale works with New York and Sao Paulo cityscapes. The essay by writer and curator David Thorp contextualises Galpin’s practice within a 20th Century art-historical discourse, exploring the various references in the work to early modernist movements.
