Greetings!

We are pleased to announce the release of Kolaj #12 and a special offer to libraries.

Every issue of Kolaj brings you news and reflection on collage from around the world. Instructions by Australian-born, Denmark-based Kareem Rizk graces the cover of Kolaj #12. We report on the Collagistas Festival 2 happening in Greece this May, Tanya St-Pierre’s collage series at The Rooms in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador, and the Denver Collage Club's inaugural exhibition in Colorado. Luigi Galimberti Faussone explores urban landscapes as acts of collage through the work of Brazilian artist Bel Failleiros, Canadian artist Larissa Fassler, and Korean artist Junebum Park. We find out why Polish artist Justyna Kabala sees collage as a technique rather than a medium. We visit award-winning collage artist and author Ashley Bryan who makes collage on a small island off the coast of Maine. Ariane Fairlie reviews Jean-Michel Basquiat’s collage work in “Now’s the Time” at the Art Gallery of Ontario. Artist portfolios from Little Rock, Arkansas; Montreal, Quebec; Pacific Palisades, California; Orlando, Florida; and Shawinigan, Quebec. And much, much more. Read more about the issue

In the opening editorial, publisher Ric Kasini Kadour asks the question, “What Good Is Collage?” He writes, "Collage’s unique ability to generate new visual insight and language is what makes collage good. This is why we see painter after painter embracing the medium exactly at that point when they are attempting to move their practice into new ground. This is why The New York Times Magazine committed a massive act of collage for its recent cover: because using the surface of the city as a canvas and pasting a monumental image onto it will make us see the city in a new way. This is why modernists embraced collage when Ezra Pound implored them to “Make It New.” And this is why collage is increasingly popular in our world today, where art’s purpose is unclear, and artists are seeking new ways to engage people."

"At its best, when collage is mystical and entertaining and revolutionary, it gives us new ways of seeing the world, new paths for the imagination to travel, and new ways of making art."

Publishing Kolaj Magazine is an incredible journey. We hope you will travel with us.
