"Collage is the twentieth century's greatest innovation." -Robert Motherwell

Kollaging Kick is a quick one week exhibit featuring the medium of collage. Over 20 emerging artists will exhibit work that highlights the different cultures, food, fashion, and art of the Lower East Side.

The word collage originally came from the French word "Coller" meaning "to paste." Today, most artists do more than paste. Collage is a format for meshing images, objects and text exploring news ideas to create original work or studies for original work. Building work through collage is usually a fast and fun process for most artists even it is not their medium. A majority of the collages being displayed were made specifically for Kollaging Kick.
