The place of collage in the aesthetic of the Beats is crucial, pointing to the attunement of these creatives with an emerging sensibility and style inherent in the culture of that era. The increasing omnipresence of television and magazine style presentation, with the move towards the instant phenomena, the hybridization of \u201chigh\u201d and \u201clow\u201d or \u201cpop\u201d culture, the 15 minutes of fame, the remote control, the sound \u201cbite\u201d, is all well understood in collage. In such terrain Pelieu and Beach mined their material. Though there is a basic similarity in the raw components of their work \u2013 sources and styles \u2013 each takes a very different approach. Pelieu\u2019s work is characterized by intricacy of color combining, care in cutting and almost a blending of elements, while Beach\u2019s work displays a much more direct, almost confrontational sense, aping the conventions of the magazine style while mocking it. Pelieu cuts into his imagery to subdue and quiet the shrillness of the magazine ethos, while Beach works to actually amplify the clamor of contemporary media address. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
