\n\t\tCollage<\/strong>\u00a0(from the\u00a0French:\u00a0coller<\/em>, “to glue”;[1]<\/sup>\u00a0French pronunciation:\u00a0\u200b[k\u0254.la\u02d0\u0292]) is a technique of an art production, primarily used in the\u00a0visual arts, where the artwork is made from an\u00a0assemblage\u00a0of different forms, thus creating a new whole.
\nA collage may sometimes include\u00a0magazine and newspaper clippings,ribbons,\u00a0paint, bits of colored or handmade papers, portions of other artwork or texts,\u00a0photographs\u00a0and other\u00a0found objects, glued to a piece of paper or canvas. The origins of collage can be traced back hundreds of years, but this technique made a dramatic reappearance in the early 20th century as an\u00a0art\u00a0form of novelty.
\nThe term\u00a0collage<\/em>\u00a0was coined by both\u00a0Georges Braque\u00a0and\u00a0Pablo Picasso\u00a0in the beginning of the 20th century when collage became a distinctive part of\u00a0modern art.[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n

History
\n<\/h2>\n

Early precedents
\n<\/h3>\n

Techniques of collage were first used at the time of the\u00a0invention of paper\u00a0in\u00a0China, around 200 BC. The use of collage, however, wasn’t used by many people until the 10th century in\u00a0Japan, when\u00a0calligraphers\u00a0began to apply glued paper, using texts on surfaces, when writing their\u00a0poems.[3]<\/sup>\u00a0The technique of collage appeared in\u00a0medieval Europe\u00a0during the 13th century.\u00a0Gold leaf\u00a0panels started to be applied in\u00a0Gothic cathedrals\u00a0around the 15th and 16th centuries.\u00a0Gemstones\u00a0and other\u00a0precious metals\u00a0were applied to religious images,\u00a0icons, and also, to\u00a0coats of arms.[3]<\/sup>\u00a0An 18th-century example of collage art can be found in the work of\u00a0Mary Delany. In the 19th century, collage methods also were used among hobbyists for\u00a0memorabilia\u00a0(e.g. applied to\u00a0photo albums) and books (e.g.\u00a0Hans Christian Andersen,\u00a0Carl Spitzweg).[3]<\/sup>\u00a0Many institutions have attributed the beginnings of the practice of collage to Picasso and Braque in 1912, however, early Victorian photocollage suggest collage techniques were practiced in the early 1860s.[4]<\/sup>\u00a0Many institutions recognize these works as memorabilia for hobbyists, though they functioned as a facilitator of Victorian aristocratic collective portraiture, proof of female erudition, and presented a new mode of artistic representation that questioned the way in which photography is truthful. In 2009, curator Elizabeth Siegel organized the exhibition:\u00a0Playing with Pictures<\/em>\u00a0[5]<\/sup>\u00a0at\u00a0the Art Institute Chicago\u00a0to acknowledge collage works by\u00a0Alexandra of Denmark\u00a0and\u00a0Mary Georgina Filmer\u00a0among others. The exhibition later traveled to\u00a0The Metropolitan Museum of Art\u00a0and\u00a0The Art Gallery of Ontario.<\/p>\n

Collage and modernism
\n<\/h3>\n

\"\"\/
\n\t\tDespite the pre-twentieth-century use of collage-like application techniques, some art authorities argue that collage, properly speaking, did not emerge until after 1900, in conjunction with the early stages of modernism.
\nFor example, the\u00a0Tate Gallery’s online art glossary states that collage “was first used as an artists’ technique in the twentieth century.”.[6]<\/sup>\u00a0According to the\u00a0Guggenheim Museum’s online art glossary, collage is an artistic concept associated with the beginnings of modernism, and entails much more than the idea of gluing something onto something else. The glued-on patches which Braque and Picasso added to their canvases offered a new perspective on painting when the patches “collided with the surface plane of the painting.”[7]<\/sup>\u00a0In this perspective, collage was part of a methodical reexamination of the relation between painting and sculpture, and these new works “gave each medium some of the characteristics of the other,” according to the Guggenheim essay. Furthermore, these chopped-up bits of newspaper introduced fragments of externally referenced meaning into the collision: “References to current events, such as the war in the Balkans, and to popular culture enriched the content of their art.” This juxtaposition of signifiers, “at once serious and tongue-in-cheek,” was fundamental to the inspiration behind collage: “Emphasizing concept and process over end product, collage has brought the incongruous into meaningful congress with the ordinary.”[7]<\/sup><\/p>\n

Collage in painting
\n<\/h3>\n

Collage in the modernist sense began with\u00a0Cubist painters\u00a0Georges Braque\u00a0andPablo Picasso. According to some sources, Picasso was the first to use the collage technique in oil paintings. According to the\u00a0Guggenheim Museum’s online article about collage, Braque took up the concept of collage itself before Picasso, applying it to charcoal drawings. Picasso adopted collage immediately after (and was perhaps indeed the first to use collage in paintings, as opposed to drawings):
\n“It was Braque who purchased a roll of simulated oak-grain wallpaper and began cutting out pieces of the paper and attaching them to his charcoal drawings. Picasso immediately began to make his own experiments in the new medium.”[7]<\/sup>
\n\t\tIn 1912 for his\u00a0Still Life with Chair Caning (Nature-morte \u00e0 la chaise cann\u00e9e)<\/em>,[8]<\/sup>Picasso pasted a patch of\u00a0oilcloth\u00a0with a chair-cane design onto the canvas of the piece.
\nSurrealist\u00a0artists have made extensive use of collage.\u00a0Cubomania\u00a0is a collage made by cutting an image into squares which are then reassembled\u00a0automatically\u00a0or at random. Collages produced using a similar, or perhaps identical, method are calledetr\u00e9cissements<\/em>\u00a0by\u00a0Marcel Mari\u00ebn\u00a0from a method first explored by Mari\u00ebn.\u00a0Surrealist games\u00a0such as\u00a0parallel collage<\/em>\u00a0use collective techniques of collage making.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
