Hannah Höch

These are from The Photomontages of Hannah Höch, which I would very much like to own but which is out of print and rather expensive. Höch (1889-1978), the only female member of the Dada movement, was one of the first artists to experiment with the technique of photomontage, alongside the likes of Raoul Hausmann (with whom she had a turbulent relationship), John Heartfield and George Grosz.
