collage by Alys Boterbleï

“How often people speak of art and science as though they were two entirely different things, with no interconnection. An artist is emotional, they think, and uses only his intuition; he sees all at once and has no need of reason. A scientist is cold, they think, and uses only his reason; he argues carefully step by step, and needs no imagination. That is all wrong. The true artist is quite rational as well as imaginative and knows what he is doing; if he does not, his art suffers. The true scientist is quite imaginative as well as rational, and sometimes leaps to solutions where reason can follow only slowly; if he does not, his science suffers.”


― Isaac Asimov

NEWS

  • In Nashville, the Frist Art Museum will soon host the first major exhibition dedicated to collage and collage-informed works that “reflect the breadth and complexity of Black identity”. Kara Walker, Kerry James Marshall, Tschabalala Self and Deborah Roberts are among the 52 contemporary artists featured in a show that will explore how the fragmented, mixed-media nature of collage can be used to suggest “diverse conceptual concerns, such as cultural hybridity, notions of beauty, gender fluidity, and historical memory” - Brilliant Things To Do This September - via AnOther

  • Based in Indianapolis, Shelley Hanmo is a self-taught illustrator specialising in paper collage illustration. She's worked with clients throughout the US, creating children's book illustrations, editorial designs, promotional illustrations, puzzles, seed packets, and more - Shelley Hanmo's paper collage creations summon Asian folklore and her love of music - via Creative Boom

  • Rhonda Wall creates hybrids of factual and fictional subject matter in her work to transport the viewer to another place – an invented world where past, present, and future events merge into one, where everything happens at the same time. The paintings in How do we survive? were made immediately before, during, and after the Covid 19 pandemic (2019-2023) and reflect the public discourse surrounding a worldwide crisis. + Irusta is an Argentine interdisciplinary artist based in Santa Cruz, CA. She studied at the University of Fine Arts in Rosario (Argentina) and works with a variety of media including traditional painting, traditional and digital illustration, traditional and digital collage, analog and digital photography and video. Onírica, an exhibition comprised of digital prints and motion art, is named for a Spanish adjective that means "of the dream or related to the images and events that are imagined while sleeping,” an apt description of Irusta's celestial, hypnotic works - at Martin Art Gallery

  • PCC: The PCC team, like most of the rest of France, is taking a little break in August.
