Loved Illustration works of Matthew Richardson, as they are an example of new vision.
Another artist which I like most is John Stezaker. I was enjoying looking through his re-examines the various relationships to the photographic image. In his collages, Stezaker appropriates images found in books, magazines, and postcards and uses them as ‘readymades’. Through his elegant style, Stezaker adopts the content and contexts of the original images to convey his own witty and original meanings.

This is a frame.
A frame defines a boundary, a limit.
Inside the frame is the area the artist exercised control over – this is the extent of the work. Outside the area, we have less control – the culture, the rest of the world. The edges of the book, for example, are a frame – they contain the book. Beyond is your room. Outside this frame, there also exist other copies of this book, identical in form, but not location.
