商品描述

Collage art and film date back to the early 20th century (the earliest collages have roots in 12th century Japan). It was rooted in the age of consumerism where artists addressed an array of political and social issues by creating a carefully crafted collision of pre-existing images and sounds to generate new meanings and commentaries on the surrounding world.

Collage has also pushed the boundaries of animation, by incorporating other artistic forms (e.g. photography, live action, experimental cinema, literature, found sound) while exploring an array of social, cultural and political issues.

In Earmarked for Collision, award-winning writer, Chris Robinson (The Animation Pimp, Mad Eyed Misfits, Unsung Heroes of Animation), takes us on a tour of the history of collage animation, cataloguing the collage works of notable artists like Larry Jordan, Harry Smith, Stan Vanderbeek, Terry Gilliam, Janie Geiser, Martha Colburn, Lewis Klahr, Run Wrake, Lei Lei, Kelly Sears, Jodie Mack and many, many others.

拼貼藝術和電影可以追溯到20世紀初(最早的拼貼作品可以追溯到12世紀的日本)。它根植於消費主義時代,藝術家通過精心製作的現有圖像和聲音的碰撞,創造出新的意義和對周圍世界的評論,以應對各種政治和社會問題。

拼貼藝術也推動了動畫的界限,通過融合其他藝術形式(例如攝影、實景拍攝、實驗電影、文學、現成聲音)來探索各種社會、文化和政治問題。

在《Earmarked for Collision》這本書中,屢獲殊榮的作家Chris Robinson(《The Animation Pimp》、《Mad Eyed Misfits》、《Unsung Heroes of Animation》)帶領我們遊覽拼貼動畫的歷史,記錄了像Larry Jordan、Harry Smith、Stan Vanderbeek、Terry Gilliam、Janie Geiser、Martha Colburn、Lewis Klahr、Run Wrake、Lei Lei、Kelly Sears、Jodie Mack等著名藝術家的拼貼作品,以及許多其他人的作品。
