Description
Dada's defiant vision lives on Raoul Hausmann fought convention all his life. Radically resolved to be "unscrupulously honest" in both art and life, the Dadaist was a multimedia activist of the first hour and a sharp-tongued critic of society. Now his visionary output can be enjoyed in all its breadth. With some 270 illustrations, this catalogue from the Berlinische Galerie traces his path: the early Expressionist works, gems of Dada from the Berlin years, Hausmann's photography, but also fashion, dance and literature, and the artist's lesser-known productivity in exile. Fourteen essays by international experts in the history of art and literature, media studies, and psychoanalysis examine the multilayered oeuvre to offer a multifaceted panorama of Hausmann's astonishing significance-even today.
