Prior to the 2019 edition of Kolaj Fest New Orleans, the couple worked with <em>Kolaj Magazine<\/em> to promote a call for submissions from those artists attending the event in 2018 or 2019. The Kanyers have made their selections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recipients of the Doug &amp; Laurie Kanyer Art Collection Purchase Award at Kolaj Fest New Orleans are: Danielle Cole; Sarah Cowling; Teresa Cribelli; Ben DiNino; FANCLUB13; Norah Lovell; Miguel Ontiveros; Kelly Schaub; Rosie Schinners; and Dafna Steinberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make their selection, the Kanyers developed a list of thirty criteria and studied the biography and online presence of the artists. &#8220;We are mounting a collection that speaks to the historical significance of collage from 1980 to the present,&#8221; said Laurie Kanyer. &#8220;We are being selective and strategic in building a collection for now and the future. For each artist who submitted, we used these criteria and conducted a deep study of each artist to inform our choices.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their research attempted to evaluate the historical value of the work, its critical context; the overall practice of the artist, or how the work demonstrated a use of the medium. &#8220;We asked, how has this artist developed a signature look, style and format to their work? While it is expected the look of the work will evolve overtime does this piece to be purchased illustrate an esthetic that is recognized and attributed to this artist,&#8221; said Kanyer. They also considered the artist&#8217;s role in the international collage community. &#8220;We wanted to see if the artist was involved in a collective or large scale collaborations.&#8221; In looking at criteria like how the artist markets or publishes their work, or their involvement in the broader collage movement, the Kanyers were trying to identify those artists whose impact goes beyond their immediate community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I was excited to work with the Kanyers on this Purchase Award as part of Kolaj Fest New Orleans,&#8221; said <em>Kolaj Magazine<\/em> Editor Ric Kasini Kadour. &#8220;The care and thought they put in to making their selections demonstrate an intention to create a collection that documents collage while supporting artists and raising their profile.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kanyers plan to continue their deep research into artists and their practice by collecting career information about the artists. In addition to a forthcoming website, they plan to incorporate exhibitions and publications in future programs. &#8220;We want this collection to be a tool for curators, researchers, and artists who wish to deepen their understanding of collage as a medium, genre, and community,&#8221; said Laurie Kanyer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kanyers selected approximately a quarter of the work submitted. For some artists whose work were not selected, they plan to reach out to them, continue to follow and research them, and collect a work in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;These works will be added to an established collection of art dating back to 1978. They will be included in the collage arm of the collection, which currently consists of 21 collagists from North America and Europe. At present, the collection boasts a total of 103 original collages dating back to 1980. We will now have a total of 113 colleges. The bulk of our acquisitions for the rest of our lives will be collage,&#8221; said Kanyer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Doug &amp; Laurie Kanyer Art Collection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The mission of the Doug &amp; Laurie Kanyer Art Collection is to support artists while creating a record of artists working in collage. The collection is a tool for curators, researchers, and artists who wish to deepen their understanding of collage as a medium, genre, and community. Acquisitions are made on an ongoing basis, in response to public calls to artists and through private inquiry. The collection will be published and available online and public presentations will be made through various exhibitions. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"kanyerartcollection.com   (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/kanyerartcollection.com\" target=\"_blank\">kanyerartcollection.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Kolaj Fest New Orleans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kolaj Fest New Orleans is a multi-day festival and symposium about contemporary collage and its role in art, culture, and society.
