Décollage

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Décollage (French: décoller = take off , loosen , separate , scrape off ) in art is the opposite of collage . Instead of putting together a picture from set pieces, parts of an original picture are removed. Forms of décollage are, for example, the "etrécissements" of the surrealist Marcel Mariën and the literary cut-up technique. In the 1950s and 1960s, the "poster demolition" developed in which several posters are stuck on top of each other and then recombined by partially tearing them off.

history

Since 1949 the décollage was used in France by Raymond Hains , Jacques de la Villeglé and from 1957 by François Dufrêne ; in 1960 they were among the founding members of the Nouveau Réalisme . The technique was also practiced by Mimmo Rotella and Wolf Vostell since the early 1950s . Furthermore, this technique was used in a modified form by Robert Rauschenberg , who blurred photographs and painted over images and texts; César and John Chamberlain pressed metal consumer goods of all kinds together.

Another form of décollage is the dé-coll / age by Wolf Vostell, who is not only interested in destruction, but also in making visible, in the sense of blurring and other forms such as wiping, bleaching, relining, distorting, blurring and printing over one another, went. On September 6, 1954 in Paris, Wolf Vostell found the word "décollage" on the cover of Le Figaro , which was used in connection with a Lockheed Super Constellation crashing into the Shannon . He carried the term over to his poster demolitions and happenings. In 1958 Wolf Vostell changed the spelling to Dé-coll / age . For Wolf Vostell, dé-coll / age became a design principle and a comprehensive concept of art. The Dé-coll / age des Happening aims at a consciousness-critical breakdown of absurd environmental conditions that harass people, for example to refer to the processes in everyday life, for example car traffic. In the dé-coll / age happenings of the early 1960s, materials were destroyed to the point of uselessness in a critical and provocative dismantling process.
