CUTTERS2010, a group exhibition curated by James Gallagher, reaffirms the new recognition of collage that has come about of late, featuring new and recent collage works by thirteen international artists.
Collage is in no way a new medium, having been practiced popularly for the past few centuries and less popularly for many before that; however as today‘s world edges closer to chaos, inundated with imagery and information, collage enjoys a newly found place among necessary outlets of expression.
Being a medium that incorporates fragments into a larger whole, in its way controlling the chaos – or at least pausing a moment long enough for examination – collage is an unexpected yet strikingly appropriate means of channeling and processing the world around us. On the increase again, partly as a result of such postmodernist concerns as pluralism, multiplicity and hybridity – and partly due to the sheer abundance of waste at five hundred years after the invention of the printing press – collage is the recycling, reinterpretation and reprocessing of our collective past, present, and future.
Using varied techniques and materials, each of the artists exploits the formal and ideological power of juxtaposing found images, creating a range of work that encompasses everything from social and political commentaries to personal confessions, not to mention surrealist fantasies, composed of shreds from real life and from the imaginary.
The exhibition features: Cless‘ frenzied scenes, Liam Crockard‘s layered accidents, Valero Doval‘s delicate vintage, Erik Foss‘s dirty girls, April Gertler‘s quiet relations, Jason Glasser’s visual soul, Sophie Kern‘s magical worlds, Matt Lipps’ provocative silhouettes, Max-O-Matic’s controlled chaos, Justin Mortimer‘s displaced limbs, Brion Nuda Rosch‘s iconic shapes, Mario Wagner‘s graphic stories, and pool gallery artist and CUTTERS curator James Gallagher‘s private moments, composed of his signature palette that includes vintage sex manuals, Sears catalogues and antique flea-market finds.

Nike and Foot Locker paired four footballers, with four artists in four different cities across Europe. The artists took the athlete’s off-pitch personality, style and enthusiasm and turned it into a unique ‘Nike Air Max 90’ portrait. F.C. Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets collaborated with Barcelona artist Max-o-matic to share his passion for sports, his hometown, his family – and of course, Nike Air Max 90. Commissioned by AKQA, Amsterdam.

Los Pels was my 2008-09 favourite band. I knew them through Mauma, their drummer (and friend to my brother). I listened to all of their demos and was thrilled by the awesome songcrafting that these guys had. Perfect melodies, nice lyrics, a trademark sound... i loved them from the very first time i listened to one of their songs. I never asked them if i could do something for them because i was to extatic listening to their music... but once, in a small interview for Global Art i was ask for whom in the music industry i would like to design, and my answer was Pels. This guys read the interview, mailed me and that was it: Max-o-matic + Pels.
