Reely & Truly

Moving Image

John Stezaker is a British artist known for his distinctive approach to collage and manipulation of appropriated imagery, most notably historic Hollywood film stills, actor's head shots and postcards. In 2012, he became the first non-photographer to win the Deutsche Börse Photo Prize, with a practice defined by cutting, splicing, and juxtaposing found photographs to create what he describes as “apertures into another world.”

Visit Stezaker at his home in London and studio in St Leonards-on-Sea as he prepares for a string of upcoming exhibitions whilst reflecting on his long career, the power of absence in collage in a culture overwhelmed by imagery and his mission to recapture the lost “magic power” of images.
