Avedon
paper collage
26.9 x 40.1 cm (10.6" x 15.8")

This is the latest in a series of collages done at the Winnipeg Art Gallery under the tutelage of Winnipeg artist Doug Melnyk. I barely know where I'm going with these collages: more much ado about nothing.

The background for the collage is composed of two separate Richard Avedon photos. The photos originally appeared in Avedon's book In the American West. (And no, I didn't cut them out of the book, and yes, I am waiting to hear from his estate's lawyers.)
