What Merzbau?

Kurt Schwitters, lonely protagonist and isolate German Dadaism, may be considered to be one of the greatest exponents of the so-called art of recovery, an art Based on the assembly of poor materials, the daily waste, and waste Especially. THESE OBJECTS; By tram tickets a Fragments of newspapers, cloths, sponges, caps, buttons Apparently Intended for A fine, are revalued by Schwitters Giving life a totally complete and original compositions. In 1901 he moved to Waldstraße, which would become the seat of the Follow-Merzbau. One of His collage bears the title of Merzbild (1919), from the fragment of the Word (Com) Merz That will compare. He Named HIS art "MERZ", intending it come sinónimo dada. Born Coincidentally, this term Merz and accompany in a sense Siglo whole next Schwitters activities. In fact, the USA Create More E note installation called Merzbau, also called From Same artist cathedral of erotic misery existed in Hanover Between 1923 and 1944, WHEN was destroyed Dai bombing. Inside this building, which the artist slowly expanded until it melts, with His House, Schwitters dedicate to each of his friends A chapel That kept a kind of relic, an object belonged That a character, come, for example, cigarette butts cigarette, pencil drills, Spare nails. The work, deliberately, never ended; it was indeed a work in progress; In the artist's intentions, this work, not coming to a full stop, MUST disrupt and destabilize. After the 1945 Stabili to Ambleside and, thanks to a financing of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, he could devote himself to the third Merzbau Achievement, remaining also unfinished.  Giovanni Bonanno
