Week 11


  1.  “collage has transformed throughout the past century as the conception of space has evolved Materially, the choice of fragments is also distinctive, revealing evidence of the time and place in which the collages were constructed” (Shields : 9) Since collage has gone through evolutionary changes, in what ways does that effect how people think about collage and how it has an effect on the design of architecture. 
  2. “The collagist’s tools are simple: a scalpel used in tandem with a probe or a pair of tweezers and small tabs to keep things in the right place prior to the gluing operation.” (Nicholson: 20) How has technology changed or replaced the tools necessary to create collage? 
  3. “Any recovery of landscape in contemporary culture is ultimately dependent on the development of new images and techniques of conceptualization.” (Corner: 153-154) Before the contemporary culture, 1945 to the present, how would collage helped the recovery of landscape issues?... like the Great Depression, 1929-1939, or WW2, 1939-1945.
