Join Berkshire Art Center for an Opening Reception of the third annual Collage Marathon Exhibition on Friday, June 2nd, from 5-7pm at the Brothership Building (141 North Street) in Pittsfield.
Fifteen artists from the Berkshires and beyond gathered in-person at Berkshire Art Center’s Stockbridge studios, with some participating virtually, for a three-day event from April 28th-30th of making collages in celebration of World Collage Day on May 13th.
Initiated by Kolaj Magazine in 2018, World Collage Day is about artists connecting across borders against a global context of entrenchment and separation. And the day is about an art medium that excels at bringing different things together to create new forms and new ways of thinking. Ric Kasini Kadour, the editor of Kolaj Magazine, writes, “We created World Collage Day because we wanted to honor this community of artists and to remind the world what a spirit of cooperation, mutual support, and creativity can look like.”
Berkshire Art Center’s Collage Marathon Exhibition is on view through June 30th.
