Radical Forms and Practices with Aneta Georgievska-Shine, Professor of Art History, University of Maryland

This lecture examines the groundbreaking techniques that defined Dada’s visual vocabulary. It looks at the invention of collage and photomontage as tools of political and cultural critique, as exemplified by the absurdist assemblages of Kurt Schwitters’s and Hannah Höch’s photomontages, which exposed the contradictions of gender and identity in Weimar Germany. Together, these radical practices redefined the limits of artistic expression.
