Cut Up / Cut Out explores paper as an artistic medium and presents artwork that range in size from an intimate three inches to sprawling and complex installations. This exhibition is a contemporary view of an ancient art practice that has evolved over thousands of years, which includes national and international artists, honors both tradition and innovation with a selection of over one hundred artworks by 51 artists representing diverse techniques and approaches to making art. Visually diverse, the artworks in Cut Up / Cut Out address our relationship with nature and environmental issues, personal and political narratives, architecture, fantasy, and abstract or formal ideas—with many intersections.
