Jiri Kolar Art
Czech, 1914-2002
Jiří Kolář was born in Czech Republic in 1914. He was the son of a baker who became a writer around 1943. His first exhibition in 1937 focused on collages, later works specifically focused on his method of using a scalpel to cut pictures from magazines and reconfigure them in Surrealist forms. He wanted to highlight the destruction and fragmentation of the world. Kolář invented/helped to develop new techniques of collage, specifically confrontage, froissage, and rollage etc. He has exhibited in Prague and 1975 in the Guggenheim, New York.

American Surrealist pipes and playing cards spirit of Magritte abstract Montage
By Charles Green Shaw
Located in Norwich, GB
I love this extraordinary American surrealist piece - a collage/montage, an assembly of objects in a velvet-clad box/frame - for a number of reasons reasons.
I love the fact that it depicts pipes, among the most iconic images of the surrealist movement, rooted in Magritte’s famous 1929 painting which depicts a pipe accompanied by the caption “Ceci n'est pas une pipe” (This is not a pipe). Marcel Duchamp loved using pipes...
