Max Bucaille "L'antre du magicien (The Magician's Cave)" 1948
Ubu Gallery has a splendid sounding show up now called "Metamorphus Victorianus: Modern Collage, Victorian Engravings, and Nostalgia." Long-time readers of Phantasmaphile know I'm a sucker for oneiric collage, particularly with engravings a la Max Ernst's Une Semaine De Bonte. This show features such masters of the medium as Jess, Joseph Cornell, and Jindřich Štyrský, and will be up until January 30th, 2010.
(Thank you yet again, Samantha!)
You might enjoy the artwork of John Clowder. He's a contemporary collage artist in a similar vein: revolverwinds.deviantart.com
