Allen A. Dutton: Photocollages
 
From  Photocollages

Surrealist weirdness from this prolific, eccentric 86-year-old Arizonian, who first came to prominence with an extensive series of elaborate photocollages involving his own nude figure, the nude bodies of various models, explosions, and various abandoned structures and natural features of the landscape of the southwest U.S.

Since then his photography has taken a documentary turn. Dutton, who taught for many years (former students include Nick Nolte and Brian Lanker), also paints and sculpts. In 2000 the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, mounted a retrospective of his work.
