Assemblage
What is it?
Assemblage is
a process that artists use. It consists of piece of rubbish, found objects or
old object put together to create a sculpture or piece of art. It can be 2D or 3D, the 2D is a relief.
Assemblage dates from the cubist constructions of Pablo
Picasso in 1912 to 1914. And the word can be traced back to the 1950’s when
Jean Dubuffet create a college out of butterfly wings.
Marcel Duchamp and Pablo Picasso both worked with found
objects before Dubuffet. The first woman to use Assemblage was Elsa von
Freytag-Loringhoven.
