Cecil Touchon was born in 1956 in Austin, Texas. This celebrated artist’s career has spanned over three decades. It is through the art of collage that he has made a lasting and influential mark. Touchon has often worked with collage using found antique and vintage papers. In this series of works the compositions depend on the patinas, printed matter, stains, writing, scribbles, textures and local color of the old sheets found in books, ephemera, street posters and other found materials.

He has exhibited in galleries throughout the United States and abroad, including the UK, France, Netherlands, Germany, Mexico and Italy. His works have been exhibited in museums and archives around the world and is part of their permanent collections most often through his affiliations with the contemporary Fluxus community.

His works are found in multiple corporate collections including those of IBM, HBO, American Airlines, American Express, Citibank, Las Vegas’s Bellagio Hotel, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Gap, Hallmark, and the Sanyo Corporation. See less
