The Millions and Millions of Views of a Freedom-Loving Dada Icon

From 16 February, the Bröhan Museum in Berlin-Charlottenburg will be dedicating itself to a true Dada icon. With Hannah Höch. Abermillionen Anschauungen (Millions and Millions of Views), it is showing over 120 works by the artist Hannah Höch (1889-1978), some of which have never been seen before. The museum does not omit any creative phase and takes a close look at the entire spectrum of her contradictory oeuvre.

The exhibition title Abermillionen Anschauungen (Millions and Millions of Views) originates from a poem by Höch and thus follows precisely the intentions that the artist always had with her work: to achieve an almost infinite variety of views. Höch became known above all for her socially critical and political photo collages. Hardly anyone, however, knows her paintings and poster designs, let alone her pieces freely combined from both disciplines. At the centre of her creative work was artistic freedom and diversity, which she never allowed herself to be deprived of and for which, according to the organisers, she switched »across all ideological divides between artistic styles depending on the theme«. Those interested have until 15 May to view the exhibition on Hannah Höch's boundless freedom of style and media.
