I like this work a lot and it can be compared to John Digby, I am going to scan some of Digby's work and see how what other information I can find out about the two artists.

Shirin Kouladjie

When i looked into this artist more I found she had some great interactive work and looking at what inspired her I read about another artist who I have already looked at Kurt Schwitters. She has a great website, photomontage.com and n3xt.com

John Heartfield

Raoul Hausmann

The collage handbook, John & Joan Digby.
I found some interesting early works by Picasso, Braque and Hausmann that I need to scan and research more into. This book gave me some artists that worked over the same time period and who would be good to compare to Hausmann such as, George Grosz, Johannes Baader, John Heartfield and Hannah Hoch. All the artists covered war periods and produced collages based around war and conflict.

Pablo Picasso

Bottle of Vieux marc, glass, guitar and newspaper (1913). The earliest collages by Picasso and Braque were between 1912-1914, with Picasso being the first to use commercial objects.

Fred Otnes

Adam Moyer

Hannah Hoch

Hoch's work immediately reminded me of Wangechi Mutu's work that I have previously researched, because they are both surreal. I think the mixed media and colour work really well and they do seem to stand out from a lot of my other research. I think I would like to look into Hoch more as an artist and what influences her and look at including her in my researchn essay.

Peter Blake

A popular pop artist who designed the infamous Beetles, 'Sgt. Peppers' album cover. I love this album cover and it is one of my favourite pieces of Blakes Collage works. The Oasis cover for 'Stop the clocks' was also designed by Blake, who said the the Beetles cover was a definite inspriration for him. I like the way Blake has used the same infamous people from history but instead of creating a collage it is more of an installation piece. It is a more modern take on the album cover using all the same influences.

Nick Bantock

These images are from the interactive game 'Griffin & Sabine'. I have played this game and I didnt enjoy the game play as I thought it was drawn out, however some of the images are collage and look great animated. These are the first images in my research of collage that have been taken from an interactive/animatic piece. They are quite surreal and different to my research so far.

I got the names of a few key figures in the history of collage that will be very useful.
