The International Weird Collage Show

COLLAGE ON VIEW

The International Weird Collage Show
at Jealous Gallery in London, United Kingdom
1-11 February 2018

After highly successful shows in New York, Berlin, Barcelona, Madrid, Montreal, Rotterdam, Trondheim and Lima, amongst other cities, the International Weird Collage Show comes to London for the first time.

“The International Weird Collage Show” is presented by The Weird Show, a collective that organizes group exhibitions focusing on contemporary collage art as a medium. Established in 2010, they have held 13 exhibitions around the world and are proudly celebrating their 14th edition at Jealous Gallery in London.

Focusing on artists who search for new ways of approaching the medium, the exhibition leaves the clichés behind in order to help redefine the way collage is made and conceived. The show was curated by Weird Show founder Max-o-matic and London-based artist James Springall.

Featuring 25 artists in total, the show presents a wide variety of handmade collage art alongside limited edition prints. The exhibiting artists come from Brazil, Canada, Germany, Italy, Norway, Peru, Spain, Ukraine, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Opening reception: Thursday, 1 February with artist and soundtrack composer Maxwell Sterling performing a live sound collage based on his highly acclaimed record Hollywood Medieval (2017), for which the artist’s mother, post-punk collage legend Linder Sterling, provided the sleeve artwork.
