This series of ten prints is a homage to the Dadaists. The Dadaists used scissors and glue rather than paint brushes and paints to express their views of modern life through images presented by the media. A variation on the collage technique, photomontage utilized actual or reproductions of real photographs printed in the popular press. In Cologne, Max Ernst used images from World War I to illustrate messages of the destruction of war. I find my image using Goggle much like the early Dadaist used media images. I print the black and white images on 11”X17” presentation paper and use a Sharpie to enhance the image with personal symbolism. The image guides my imagination and provides a starting point for the spontaneous drawing.
The GiclĂ©e prints are 9”X12”, printed on heavy archival paper. Only fifty of each signed and numbered print will be available. Individual prints are 25.00 each and a completed set of ten is 200.00. Shipping costs will be added to the price. Please email your interest.
