Origins and History
Contemporary Urban Collages emerged in the early 20th century as a response to the fast-paced urbanization of cities. The use of found objects and materials, such as newspapers, magazines, and advertisements, became a common practice for artists to express the chaos of the city and its culture. In the 1920s and 1930s, artists such as Kurt Schwitters and Hannah Höch pioneered the movement with their Dadaist and Surrealist collages. The style gained popularity during the Pop Art movement in the 1960s, with artists like Richard Hamilton and Robert Rauschenberg incorporating urban imagery and consumer culture into their works.
