EMAIL INQUIRIES ABOUT THIS SHOW TO
This is an exhibition where each artist creates a
work in their own
style and another work that is an homage to a historical artist that
has influenced or inspired them. The second work should be based
directly on the style of or even better - a study of a specific
work of the artist one is inspired by. The homage might be a Cubist,
Surrealist, Dadaist, Constructivist, De Stijl, Abstract Expressionist,
Futurist, Fluxus, Pop, etc. by any one of your favorite artists from
the genres of assemblage/construction/collage art.
The pair of works by each artist will be displayed side by side. This
exhibition, organized by the International Museum of Collage,
Assemblage and Construction (IMCAC), will take place at the Longview
Fine Arts Museum in Longview, Texas. A catalog of the works will be
produced for this exhibition. The exhibition will also be kept on
permanent display on the collagemuseum.com website with a link to
each artist website or contact info if desired.
The works in the show will be donated by the participating artists to
the museums. The works will be divided between the IMCAC and the
Longview Fine Arts Museum and entered into the two museums' permanent
collections. Should any works not be accepted or de-accessioned by the
Longview Museum, such works will revert to the IMCAC collection.
If possible, works on paper should be framed using archival matting and
a simple 16x20 inch black, white or natural wood frame. Otherwise works
should be created in a ready to hang or display format. This might be
collages on paper, mixed media on canvas or panel, photo-montage,
digital montage or assemblages, box assemblages, constructions,
collections of objects, etc. These can be wall works or free standing
sculptural objects to be placed on the floor, a table or a pedestal.
The catalog will be produced by the Longview Fine Arts Museum and at
least one free copy sent to each participating artist. An essay on the
exhibition will be written by Cecil Touchon, Director of the IMCAC.
The IMCAC is dedicated to the collection, study
and exhibition of
collage, assemblage, construction, montage, photo-montage, digital
collage, concrete poetry, collage poetry, film, sound collage, and
other constructive arts.
