The result was <em>Corporeal Gestures: An International Exhibition of Contemporary Collage<\/em>, a curated collection of work by more than 100 collage artists from 21 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book is the fully illustrated catalogue of all the work selected and exhibited in April 2022 at the School of Architecture, Portland State University. The work included in the publication represents a diverse, international response to the ways in which our actions, rhythms, relationships and shared experience of being alive are both predetermined and made possible by the modicum of matter borrowed from the world that constitutes each of our bodies. The project challenged collage artists to consider how one\u2019s body is activated in the world \u2013 acting, gesturing, making \u2013 amidst the shared rhythms pertaining to our common, mortal predicament in a single, unfolding cosmos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK<\/strong><br><em>Corporeal Gestures: Fragmentary Explorations in the Cultivation of the Human Body<\/em><br>by Clive Knights<br>138 pages, full color<br>ISBN: 978-0-9718903-5-0<br>$29.68 USD<br>School of Architecture, Portland State University, April 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purchase the book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulu.com\/shop\/clive-knights\/corporeal-gestures-catalogue\/paperback\/product-67jzrk.html?q=corporeal+gestures&amp;page=1&amp;pageSize=4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Clive Knights<br \/>\nSchool of Architecture, Portland State University, 2022<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1181,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[94],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/CG-Cover.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8O04t-j2","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1180"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1180"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1180\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1187,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1180\/revisions\/1187"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1181"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1180"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1180"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1180"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
