Todd Bartel: Select Collages 1983-1989
by Todd Bartel

This is the first book in a series that examines selected bodies of work by collage-based artist Todd Bartel. This volume offers a glimpse into Bartel’s early collages as an emerging artist. The selected thirty-one examples were created during the artist’s undergraduate years at the Rhode Island School of Design and the years prior to pursuing his MFA degree.

Todd Bartel is an artist and teacher. He is the founder and Gallery Director of the Cambridge School of Weston’s Thompson Gallery which is dedicated to thematic inquiry. In 2012, he curated “Collage at 100”, a five-part, year-long exhibition series that celebrated the centennial of the appearance of collage in painting.
