Hannah Höch: Picture Book

Autor Hannah Höch Traducere de Brian Currid
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iun 2010
A central figure in the Berlin Dada circle, friend to Kurt Schwitters and Piet Mondrian and lover of Raoul Hausmann, Hannah Höch (1889-1972) is probably the most important female artist from the German modernist period. She is best known for her pioneering works of photomontage, which briskly juxtapose mechanical and organic forms, ancient and contemporary bodies, symbols and text drawn from brands and headlines, also edging feminism, commodity critique and other political concerns into the mix. "It is striking how contemporary to us much of Höch's work feels," Luc Sante wrote recently, "in its sexual politics, its humor, its gleeful appropriation of anything and everything at hand." In 1945, Höch made this fantastical full-color children's book, which chronicles the adventures of the four mythical creatures Runfast, Dumblet, Snifty and Meyer in an enchanted garden, combining photomontage with the hallucinatory plant imagery she had come to favor. It is published here for the first time.

Notă biografică

Hannah Höch (1889-1972) ist die wohl bedeutendste deutsche Künstlerin der Klassischen Moderne. Gerade in den letzten Jahren hat ihr Oeuvre erneut internationale Anerkennung gefunden. Ihre Arbeiten sind bestimmt vom dadaistischen Prinzip der Fotomontage, an deren Entwicklung Hannah Höch zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts maßgeblich beteiligt war. Durch die vielfältige Kombination widersprüchlicher Sequenzen, ausgeschnitten aus Illustrierten, Prospekten und Fotografien, eröffnet sie neue irritierende Bildwelten. Ihre Kritik an den politischen Verhältnissen und tradierten Geschlechterrollen verarbeitete Hannah Höch subtil verschlüsselt in den halluzinatorischen Pflanzenbildern und grotesken Szenerien absurder Mischwesen.
