Danielle Krysa

foreword by Anthony Zinonos

Collage has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity during the twenty-first century, resulting in an explosion of creativity. This showcase of cutting-edge contemporary art from across the globe features galleries of collage by 30 practitioners, from the surreal landscapes of Beth Hoeckel to Fabien Souche's humorous appropriations of pop culture. Each artist has also created a new piece especially for this book-all using the same original image, but with results as wildly diverse as the medium of collage itself. This collection is visual inspiration for art lovers and an appreciation of the transformation of old into new.

Danielle Krysa is the artist and writer behind the Jealous Curator, the popular art blog. She lives in British Columbia, Canada.

Anthony Zinonos has exhibited his collages worldwide. He lives in Norwich, England.
