Collage: Make the Impossible Possible
Description
Though the term "collage" was coined by the cubists in the early 20th century, the art form's earliest elements can be traced back to 200 B.C., making it as old as paper itself. Collage: Make the Impossible Possible starts there and follows the history of the medium up to the present, where digital image manipulation has opened up entirely new possibilities. A clearly illustrated guide to tools and techniques makes creating incredible collages more accessible than ever, and the varied artist profiles that form the center of the book provide a wealth of inspiration for experts and novices alike. Process shots, including source images and rough drafts, illuminate the process of creating collage in art, graphic design, and fashion. Surreal, beautiful, and richly informative, Collage: Make the Impossible Possible is the definitive book on collage.
