COLLAGE RESIDENCY<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kolaj Institute Announces the First Round of Artists Selected for the Poetry & Collage Residency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kolaj Institute is pleased to announce the twelve artists selected to participate in the first round of the Poetry & Collage Residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It says something that in the Poetry Foundation\u2019s Glossary of Poetic Terms, \u201ccollage\u201d is one of the few visual art terms they define. Perhaps this is because so many poets have also been collage artists. In recent years, we\u2019ve seen exhibitions from John Ashbery and Marc Strand, whose collage \u201cdates back to his student days at Yale in the 1950s where he studied with Josef Albers, the renowned Bauhaus artist and color theorist, and also Bernard Chaet.\u201d Arthur Solway recalled, \u201cThough we were eight thousand miles apart we would have weekly Skype calls, and he was always eager and excited to show me the latest batch of collages he was working on.\u201d A 2017 book of Helen Adam\u2019s collages, which fellow poet Robert Duncan referred to as \u201cpleasing weird\u201d, has sold out. Keith Waldrop, Barbara Guest, John Wieners, Norma Cole, the list is long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants will work together to investigate the intersection of collage and poetry by exploring concepts of found poetry, blackout poetry, collage poems, haikus, centos, response collages, response poems, word scrambles, concrete poetry, scatter collage poems, and other poems and artwork that inhabit this world. Together we will create working definitions and document techniques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guest speakers will share their practice, knowledge and experience. Portland, Oregon-based Kevin Sampsell <\/strong>is an <\/strong>editor, publisher, bookstore employee, collage artist, and author. His forthcoming book of collage art and poems, I Made an Accident,<\/em> is being published by Clash Books. Ren\u00e9e Reizman <\/strong>is an interdisciplinary curator, artist and writer specializing in social practice and civic engagement. Her workshop, \u201cDeconstructing Legalese\u201d, uses found poetry to examine contracts and codes imposed upon us by bureaucratic systems, and reconstructs the language to reclaim our personal histories. Rod T. Boyer <\/strong>creates art and poetry under the moniker our thomas, exploring themes of redemption, mystery, and transformation. In Kolaj<\/em> #32, his article, “Mind the Gap,” explored how collage and haiku share similar mechanisms of juxtaposition and disjunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In several virtual meetings over four weeks and through ongoing, online discussion, artists will leave the residency with a deeper understanding of the intersection of collage and poetry. Individual participants will each create multiple page spreads that will be included in a forthcoming book of collage and poetry from Kolaj Institute. The pages may be entirely text, entirely images, or some combination of the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living in eight cities before high school, Janice McDonald<\/strong>‘s affinity for collage may have come from piecing together all those early experiences. McDonald remembers making her first collage in second grade and feeling empowered that she could rearrange reality at will. Art always helped her find her purpose and place as the \u201cnew kid.\u201d After graduating from Oregon State with a BFA in art and a concentration in design, McDonald became a graphic designer, eventually establishing a design consultancy in Denver, Colorado. Studying the details in photos she art-directed for clients, McDonald felt some were so intriguing that they should be salvaged, so she started a collection of inspiring elements. Her interest in collage was rekindled by those collected scraps, plus the advent of the computer in design. She writes, “I wanted a way to continue working with my hands.” McDonald has worked in the collage medium for about 25 years now. She’s a signature member of the National Collage Society. She presented a workshop at Kolaj Fest New Orleans 2018 and made a presentation about working in a series in 2019. McDonald was affiliated with Spark Gallery (Denver\u2019s oldest cooperative contemporary gallery), where she was able to curate shows of her work regularly, from 2010-2021. Her collages find homes with individual collectors, and are included in site-specific commissions and in corporate collections, including those of the Adolph Coors Foundation, IMA Financial, CoBank, Beaver Run Resort, Castle Rock Adventist Hospital, Denver Health, Denver Seminary, Aspen Arbor Animal Hospital, and Boulder Community Hospital among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
