In his editorial, Kolaj<\/em> Editor Ric Kasini Kadour asks if we can stop thinking about collage as a \u201cbastard form\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

One of the things that makes collage, as practiced today, uniquely modernist is the fact that a collage always references itself….The modernist painter used bad brush strokes, a poorly drawn faces, and awkward trees to remind the viewer that they are looking at a painting, to ask the viewer to contemplate the artifice of the discipline, of the medium, and to delve into the ideas, feelings, and experience behind it….By its nature, collage has always done this.<\/em><\/h2>\n

-Kolaj #17 Editorial<\/strong><\/p>\n
