Brief<\/summary>\n
Research Task: Brooklyn Collage Collective\nSpend some time exploring the links below and the work of the Brooklyn Collage Collective. Reflect on how collage as a medium might connect with ideas of contemporary collaboration, networks and ecologies.\n\nBrooklyn Collage Collective website<\/a>\n\nIntroduction to Communities of Practice<\/a>\n\nA New Kind of Collaboration\n<\/a>\nThe Social Turn: Collaboration and its Discontents<\/a><\/code><\/pre>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Brooklyn Collage Collective was founded in 2013 by Morgan Jesse Lappin<\/a>. The mission statement of the collective is to “break the boundaries of what collage is or can be” and bring attention and credibility to collage as a medium and its ability to create a dialogue through assemblage. Perhaps, most relevant to the idea of collage as a medium for contemporary collaboration, the collective’s overarching aim was to create a strong community of collage artists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The current website only lists three interviews of collage artists and I was wondering if I could get a better understanding of the collective through historical archive so I searched the wayback machine<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Back in 2015, the collective had 8 members: Lizzie Gill<\/a>, Kieran Madden<\/a>, Daniel Greer<\/a>, Mike DeSutter<\/a>, Jay Riggio<\/a>, Linzi Silverman<\/a>, Elise Margolis<\/a>, and Allie Olson<\/a> and Lizzie was listed as the co-founder of the collective<\/a>, it’s unclear why she has been erased from this history but she’s possibly the artist with the most accomplished professional career, by looking at the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This historical bleep aside, the collective still connect artists through social media although perhaps in a superficial way with artists sign-posting their profile in an instagram post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
