Raoul Hausmann (1886-1971). Vision. Provocation. Dada.

0 - Default Title
Description
Raoul Hausmann fought convention all his life. Radi- cally 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 Berlin- ische 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 pano- rama of Hausmann's astonishing significance-even today. Raoul Hausmann (1886-1971) was an exceptionally innovative avant-garde artist. He co-invented collage, explored body, words, and space in early happenings, merged the visual with the haptic, and translated sound into images. In and beyond art, the provocative "Dadasoph" called out the establishment.
