Versatility, innovation, inspiration—that’s what The Mastersseries offers artists and crafters, and this superb new collection offers a stunning look at contemporary collage work from approximately 40 leading artists. It features a breathtaking mix of techniques from traditional cut-and-paste to digital to collage with paint or encaustic, and styles ranging from wildly playful and colorful to evocative, almost monochrome images.

Each highlighted master takes center stage in an informative eight-page feature that includes nearly a dozen gorgeous, high-quality photos plus a short essay by curator Randel Plowman placing the impressive work and its creator in context. Versatility, innovation, inspiration—that’s what The Mastersseries offers artists and crafters, and this superb new collection offers a stunning look at contemporary collage work from approximately 40 leading artists.
