Da Dandy

Artist: Hannah Hoch

1919

This is a photomontage by Hannah Hoch entitled Da Dandy. We know from the article we had to read for class that photomontages are what Hannah Hoch became famous for. She was mesmerized by the beauty of women and it showed in her work. Women were a central theme in her work. In this particular piece of work She references the hypocrisy of the Berlin Dada group and German society as a whole in her photomontage. I liked this piece because i like the way she highlights women beauty and how certain things stand out in the photomontage. For instance women's face and her makeup and also shoes and necklaces. I think this definetely brings to light women's role in media and society of that time. This photomontage really stuck out to me and i found it very attractive and appealing.
