Using the physical magazine and each issue\u2019s curatorial prompt as a starting point, artists deconstruct, reimagine, and reconstruct the published artworks into entirely new creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From short-form exchanges to extended dialogues, the included artworks demonstrate the exchange and transformation of ideas and imagery across multiple iterations. Recurring elements evolve, amplifying their original meanings or finding new life in unexpected contexts. Some artworks echo their predecessors with near-mirrored compositions, while others deconstruct their source materials entirely, mining them for textures, colors, and forms to create something entirely new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16302\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition-600x386.jpg 600w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition-700x451.jpg 700w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition-300x193.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition-768x495.jpg 768w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/vanessa-vargas-sune-woods-cut-me-up-transition-260x167.jpg 260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Images from <em>Cut Me Up <\/em>Magazine <br>(left to right) Vanessa Vargas and Sun\u00e9 Woods<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Curated by Andrea Burgay, editor, director, and founder of <em>Cut Me Up<\/em> magazine, this exhibition represents the collaborative efforts of the guest curators and published artists, who have shaped every issue of the magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The artists in the exhibit are: Yura Adams, Todd Bartel, Katie Blake, Lucinda Bliss, LaVonna Varnado Brown, Andrea Burgay, Laura Cannamela, Cless, Jess Costanzo, Ben DiNino, Pedro Freitez, Rub\u00e9n Frejo, Torea Frey, Luciana Frigerio, James Gallagher, Gaetano Rizzi, Laurent Seljan, Leonardo Sousa, Ian Tothill, Angela Tucker, Vanessa Vargas, Al Wong, Sun\u00e9 Woods <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional cover artworks by: Michelle Bowers, Monica Church, Paola D\u2019Croz, Cait Elizabeth, John Rigney, and Naomi White.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(text adapted from material provided by the gallery)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Vassar College Art Library<\/strong><br>124 Raymond Avenue<br>Poughkeepsie, New York 12604 USA<br>(845) 437-5760<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hours:<br>Monday-Friday, 9AM-5PM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/3Bsqm56CuJBtEG5p7\" target=\"_blank\">MAP<\/a> | <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/library.vassar.edu\/art-library\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/library.vassar.edu\/art-library\" target=\"_blank\">WEBSITE <\/a>| <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/VassarArtlibrary\/\" target=\"_blank\">FACEBOOK<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cut Me Up Magazine Covers(left to right) Issue 01 by Andrea Burgay and Issue 02 by Ben DiNino COLLAGE ON VIEW Cut Me Up: Transitions at The Vassar College Art Library in Poughkeepsie, New York, USA22 January\u201328 March 2025 The&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/collage-exhibitions\/cut-me-up-transitions\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":16292,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/andrea-burgay-ben-di-nino-cut-me-up-transition.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2QTD7-4eL","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1372,"url":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/cut-out-page\/issue-two-cut-out-page-winner\/","url_meta":{"origin":16291,"position":0},"title":"Issue Two Cut Out Page Winner","author":"Christopher Byrne","date":"14 February 2013","format":false,"excerpt":"In each issue of Kolaj Magazine, we publish a Cut Out Page where we present imagery from various sources, carefully selected by our team of contributors or occasional guests.
