The Photomontages of Hannah Höch
A pioneer in the medium of photomontage. Hannah Höch (1889- 1978) was the sole female member of the Berlin Dada movement and continued to produce innovative works well into the 1970s. In the decade and a half since her death, a new generation of scholars has focused its attention on her elegant dissection of the representation of women in the mass media during the Weimar era. Here is the first comprehensive survevy of her work by an American museum, authors Peter Boswell, Maria Makela, and Carolyn Lanchner survey the full scope of Höch`s half century of experimentation in photomontage - from her politicialy charged early works and intimate psychological portraits of the Weimar era to her later forays into surrealism and abstraction. This beautyfully designed cataloque present more than 100 color plates and offers new insights into the life and career of this extraordinary artist.
