The subject of a series of articles appearing in <em>Kolaj Magazine<\/em>, &#8220;uncollage&#8221; is an art practice that masks an initial collage operation in favor of creating a seamless final image, through the act of painting, and beyond. Bartel, who coined the term, writes, &#8220;&#8216;Uncollage&#8217; may be a new word, but the idea of &#8216;uncollage&#8217; has been in existence for well over a century and a half before the need for the word arose. Since the advent of photography, artists have explored many avenues of composite creativity including aleatoric practices, assemblage, bricolage, chiasmage, confrontage, crumblage, decalcomania, d\u00e9collage, decoupage, digital collage, farrago, film, froissage, frottage, fumage, grattage, marouflage, montage, parsemage, prolage, reverse collage, rollage, and ventillage. Despite all these avenues of creative inquiry, certain practices have yet gone unnamed.&#8221; Bartel will focus on those artists on view at the Ogden Museum &#8220;whose respective painting processes are dependent upon collecting images and employing collage processes that are not always visibly evident in the final result of their paintings. Artists such as these, and many more, prompt us to expand the definition of collage and divide the term to attribute some of its wider, but as of yet unnamed applications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em><b>About Kolaj Fest New Orleans<\/b><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kolajmagazine.com\/kolaj-fest-new-orleans.html\">Kolaj Fest New Orleans<\/a> is a multi-day festival and symposium about contemporary collage and its role in art, culture, and society, July 10-14, 2019.
