John Stezaker

John Stezaker is a conceptual artist that is best known for his collage work. His collages usually feature found images taken from postcards, film stills, and commercial photographs. His collages are interesting yet simple, “My ideal is to do very little to the images, maybe just one cut: the smallest change or the most minimal mutilation”.  I liked the simplicity of Stezaker’s collages as I am a beginner in digital manipulation and wanted simple yet effective images.

EL ESPINO⠀ ⠀ Al lado de ti, pero no⠀ de tu mano: así te miro⠀ andar por el jardín⠀ de verano: las cosas⠀ que no pueden moverse⠀ aprenden a mirar. No necesito⠀ perseguirte a través⠀ del jardín; en cualquier parte⠀ los humanos dejan⠀ señal de lo que sienten, flores⠀ esparcidas en el polvo del camino, todas⠀ blancas y doradas, algunas⠀ levemente alzadas⠀ por el viento de la tarde. No necesito⠀ seguirte adonde estás ahora,⠀ hundido en la ponzoña de este campo, para⠀ saber la causa de tu huida, de tu humana⠀ pasión, de tu rabia: ¿por qué otra cosa⠀ dejarías caer todo aquello⠀ que has acumulado?⠀ ⠀ HAWTHORN⠀ ⠀ Next to you, but no⠀ from your hand: that's how I look at you⠀ walk in the garden⠀ summer: things⠀ they can't move⠀ they learn to look. I dont need⠀ chase you through⠀ of the garden; anywhere⠀ humans leave⠀ sign of what they feel, flowers⠀ scattered in the dust of the road, all⠀ white and gold, some⠀ slightly raised⠀ by the afternoon wind. I dont need⠀ follow you where you are now,⠀ sunk in the poison of this field, to⠀ know the cause of your flight, of your human⠀ passion, of your rage: why else⠀ would you drop all that⠀ what have you accumulated?⠀ ⠀ Louise Glück⠀ & John Stezaker (artist)⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #analogcollage #analogcollagecommune #collageart #collage_art #collageartist #collageartwork #collagework #collagecollectiveco #c_expo #collagemaker #contemporarycollage #collage_guild #collagetash #collagelife #collagecollective #handcut #handcutcollage #cutandpaste #handmadecollage #papercut #gluepaperscissors #retroart #collage_expo #collagedesign #collages #collageonpaper #collageartistsoninstagram #vagabondwho #marcopolorules #johnstezaker https://www.instagram.com/p/CIn0CEfnEpX/?igshid=nyu9delmy7qu

Merhaba 📄✂️ Bugün 1949 Worcester, Birleşik Krallık doğumlu Kavramsal Sanatçı (1) John Grenville Stezaker'den bahsedeceğim. Sanat eğitimine Slade Sanat Okulu'nda başlayan Stezaker, 1973 senesinde buradan mezun olmuş ve  Pop Art akımının baskınlığına tepki gösteren ilk İngiliz kavramsal sanatçıları arasında yer almıştır. 1969 senesinden 2018 senesine kadar hem kişisel hem de grup sergileri açan Stezaker, daha çok Marriage (Evlilik) Serisi gibi kolaj serileri ile tanınmaktadır. Özellikle bu seri ve işlerinin geneli için Stezaker, klasik film yıldızlarının portreleri, yeni biçimlenmiş fakat hâlâ kopuk karakterler yaratarak izleyicisini farklı bir açıdan bakmaya itmiş ve çalışmaları için; “Benim idealim, görüntülerde çok az değişiklik yapmak, belki sadece bir kesim veya yarattığım küçük sakatlıklar.. Yaptığım şey yıkıcı ama aynı zamanda kasıtlı bir eylem." demiştir. Damien Hirst ve Tracey Emin gibi sanatçılara ilham olduğu bilinen Stezaker'in eserleri; Londra'daki Tate Modern, New York'taki Modern Sanat Müzesi ve Tel Aviv Sanat Müzesi gibi önemli müze ve galerilerde sergilenmiştir. Stezaker, 2006 senesinde kadar Londra'daki Royal College of Art'ta Eleştirel ve Tarihsel Çalışmalar alanında öğretmenlik yapmıştır. Sanatçı, Londra'da yaşamakta ve çalışmaktadır. * Açıklamayı yorum kısmında bulabilirsiniz. 🎉 1- Mask XXIX / 2- Visitation / 3- Marriage IV / 4- Fold X / 5- Blind I / 6- Sphere VII / 7- Old Mask IV / 8- Echo (Film Still Collage) I / 9- Shadow VI / 10- Marriage I #art #sanat #collageart #collage #kolaj #kolajsanatı #johngrenvillestezaker #johnstezaker #conceptual #conceptualart #kavramsalsanat #englishartist #marriage #sanatıkeşfet #coronadays #benibunaannemzorladi https://www.instagram.com/p/CP8TBYbAe2g/?utm_medium=tumblr

John Stezaker

John Stezaker recently did a lecture in our Gravity series last Thursday 23rd March, where he spoke about his work and explained his collages.

I had actually never heard of him before this lecture, however I recognised his work after he showed several slides throughout the lecture.

This extract from http://www.stills.org/exhibition/past/john-stezaker explains his practice ‘Breathing new life into photographs salvaged from forgotten film archives and obsolete magazines, John Stezaker intuitively transforms these found portraits into otherworldly, uncanny beings. Playing with our fascination with the face, Stezaker’s subtle yet unsettling interventions toy with the subconscious and the surreal.‘

In the lecture he said he collected damaged images, and sometimes he doesn't even have to do anything to them to turn them into the artworks as they are already finished because of their imperfection. This can include stains and flecks of dust which are present on the photographs. I particularly like this one of his pieces which I have attached below called ‘Love’ with the double eyes. Its very striking and emphasises the fact that the eyes are the first thing we notice when looking at someone's face.

When collaging he fits the faces together so perfectly that you can still see a face even though a landscape has been used. The angles are fitted correctly so that the landscape he has placed into the face is taken from the same angle as the face, like this one below.
