Over the years artists have used the collage
technique in different ways and in different forms.
Lets take a look at 4 artists who explore collage in
different ways.
Collage and painting
Glass and bottle of Suze 1912
Violin 1912 -13
Guitar 1913
Artist Pablo Picasso was one of the first to mix collage with his paintings and drawings. He would cut
printed text or pictures into shapes and puzzle them in with his drawing or painting.

NZ artist Kate Woods combines painting with photography in her collage art works. She often
uses photographs of New Zealand landscapes and changes their appearance by painting
geometric sculptures. They almost appear as time portals to other worlds.

Collage as cut outs
The Sorrows of the King 1952
The Horse, the Rider and the Clown 1947
The Parekeet and the Mermaid 1952
Polynesia, The Sea 1946
Large Composition with Masks 1953
After painting for many years Artist Henri Matisse stopped and started making paper collages. He began
painting large pieces of paper in bold colours, then cutting out shapes, figures and objects and arranging
them in interesting ways. Some collages would be so big they could easily fill an entire gallery wall.

British artist Patrick Bremer shows us how you can create intricate and detailed collage portraits. Patrick
combines craft paper, newspaper, magazine pages and carefully cuts out, arranges and pastes his shapes into
place to capture the unique features of his subjects.
