The Brommer and Speight books were exactly what I was looking for... After a good publishing run of some poems many years ago, I did a poem collage of one of them, and then did no more. I'm inspired to go back to those pieces, as I remember how much I love text in collage. Thanks for that spark of inspiration!
So glad you found what you wanted! That book is very technical but really great for visual artists. I hope you enjoy it.
One of the best collage book videos for sure. Thanks so much for these recommendation
Oh thanks, I'm very happy to hear it!
Many many thanks for your review! I am new to your site and just subbed. Currently I’m enjoying my copy of Cut That Out but Your suggestions I’m thrilled to check out. I’m a jazz musician and new to art but experiencing a second Spring through graphic arts. It has been life changing! Thank you for all you do! ❤
Thank you so much for subscribing! I hope you're enjoying your new creative outlet.
I love collage! I’m going to get these books! Thank you for sharing!
That's great Michelle, I hope they inspire you!
Great video! I am ready to dive into collage and the books you recommend look amazing! thank you :)
Thank you for your comment, I wish you a lot of joy with collage!
You are so generous I always wanted to learn more about collage unfortunately didn’t know where to start. Thank you so much for sharing.
You are so welcome! Collage is a great medium, I hope you enjoy experimenting with it.
..Same here.
I really enjoyed this video. College looks simple and it is simple but in the hands of creative people it becomes something very sophisticated. I was not familiar with these titles and I welcome the bibliography you provided.
Thank you! I have created a playlist and will keep posting videos on collage.
Awesome books! This is a great start.
Thanks Laura, have a good time reading them!
This is amazing. I might give it a try
I would love to see what you come up with
Yeah the stitching brings in so many possibilites
It really does! And you can try taping, stapling, sewing...
Very nice and informative video! Thank you! 👍
You're so welcome!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I've been looking to experiment more with collage and in a kind of illustration way - your recommendations have helped a lot. Thank you! Also have you thought of doing those links where you earn a commission if we click through to buy from here? I think you might have got some from a few of us in this post :) Off to check out the next video of artists you mentioned.
Thanks for the suggestion Carmen, it would make a lot of sense! I hope you enjoy your collage illustrations ;-)
Can you recommend any book or video etc. on how to actually 'read' collage? I can feel what I like and see it visually but its meaning escapes me but that's my feeling about art full stop.
I think 'Collage by Women' would be good because the artists share some their thoughts about their process and what they're trying to create. You could also check out Kolaj Magazine to learn more about approaches to collage: kolajmagazine.com/content/
To be fair, there is no single meaning that you need to unpack in any given work of art. Of course knowing something about the artist or the cultural/political context can help you understand their work but your personal response to it matters just as much. It's not the way it was at school, where you needed to find the right answers to score points ;-) So it's about your own interest and enjoyment, using curiosity to explore collage and learn as you go. I hope this helps!
I like to get your instagram
thank you 🌹
