Collage Art

I really enjoy collage art because of the interesting ways things that are separate and have nothing to do with one another can come together to make an interesting single peice. When you look at a collage, you can see the big picture but you can also see cool stories and smaller works of art in the smaller peices making up the big picture.
This collage is by Romare Bearden and is entitled Mysteries. The different angles and faces create an almost alien like being. The peices come together in almost a natural way but remain slightly mismatched to create interest in the peice.
This type of graphic collage art is my favorite. I love how the individual tiny peices create shadow and color blocks in the piece. I love the ones that are made up of hundreds of photos to create one larger image. The time and effort that goes into these peices to create the perfect color and scheme is amazing.

The Obama collage is pretty interesting and also delivers a strong politcal message without any words or offensive images.
