The book is curated and authored by Carolina Amell for Monsa Publications, a publisher of high quality art and design books in Barcelona.”

The medium of collage has a rich history and is gaining the attention and respect of a growing audience, yet a rich, thorough examination of that history and a diverse critical examination of the way contemporary artists are fitting into it as well as building on and challenging the traditions of the medium is something that is sorely lacking.
