FROM KOLAJ #19<\/p>\n

A profile of Rhonda Wall<\/h2>\n

Rhonda Wall thinks of her collage art as Neo Collage from the 21st century. Formally, her work has an affinity with diverse aesthetics, like Dada, Russian Constructivism, and Surrealism; as well as collage artists like Romare Bearden, Kurt Schwitters, Hannah H\u00f6ch, and Liubov Popova. Thematically, her collages reveal underlying feminist and political narratives, blending imagery from magazines, old scientific manuals, internet sources and painting. Altogether these fragments form a cohesive and idiosyncratic visual syntax, which is familiar and hard to place at the same time.<\/p>\n

Etty Yaniv profiles this fascinating artist in Kolaj #19.<\/p>\n

Ranging from historical figures to pop icons, scientific breakthroughs to technological inventions, epidemics to religious symbols, advertisements from the 60\u2019s to space explorations, natural disasters to greeting cards, old to new political campaigns, Wall\u2019s imagery interrelates and resonates unexpected new meaning.<\/em><\/h2>\n
