Post 20: Dadaism


Hannah Hoch created this picture of Dadaism. To me, it looks more like a collage, rather than a Dada movement artwork. First, the pieces of strips of picture is putted together with an optical circle in the middle. Even more, i think that each strip have a meaning or a symbol of the representational country. So, this connect my thoughts by the meaning of unifying the world, and have global peace. As to the picture, it each strip is holding on to another, where each other should help another to get have world peace. Lastly, the big circle in the middle me thought of a sun, because the circle brought unity where as the sun is a type of unity of the earth. So, the message may be the environmental concerns that are needed to be aware of because the picture is developed by the strips of magazine. Therefore, Hannah Hoch created this picture under a topic of Dada Movement because it concerns globally.
