" Cutting Edges is a collection of current artistic work that unites unrelated elements to create something new.
Although the artists also use the computer for the purpose of montage, most of the featured collages are made by hand and often include found objects. It is not only the addition of visual elements that is important to the work, but also their deliberate omission, deletion, and destruction.

While the combination of very different materials is charmingly reminiscent of the past, the innovative work in Cutting Edges proves that a new era of collage has begun. "

Texts by curator Dr. Silke Krohn put this current rediscovery of collage into an art-historical context.
