We’re hugebig (no, thats probably not a word) fans of modern collage art, and the way in which artists of today push an artform that has been around for hundreds of years. What we also love, is the fact that (outside of the common perceptive eye), that there is a thriving community of these artists here in Australia. Kareem Rizk, Mauro Palmieri, Danilo Brandao and Phoenix all put their best foot forward to show us what its all about, and it was an unmitigatedly successful display.

This community got together last Friday night to present Alterations, Disturbances and Rips at RTIST Gallery – and the results were nothing short of stupendous. Installations, cuts and slices were the name of the day – and if you haven’t been down to RTIST to see this, you need to; this isn’t your high school art class collage, kids.

Thanks to Dave Russell once again for all the pics!
