Biography
Hannah Höch (1889-1978) was a German artist known for her contributions to the Dada movement. Höch's collages are visually striking and satirical, utilizing found imagery from newspapers, magazines, and advertisements to critique societal norms and gender roles. Her works often feature fragmented figures and jarring juxtapositions, reflecting the absurdity and chaos of the post-World War I era. Höch's pioneering use of collage, particularly in the context of Dada, established her as a key figure in the development of 20th-century art.
