Dada's defiant vision lives on
Raoul Hausmann fought convention all his life. Radically resolved to be “unscrupulously honest” in both art and life, the Dadaist was a multimedia activist of the first hour and a sharp-tongued critic of society. Now his visionary output can be enjoyed in all its breadth. With more than 300 illustrations, this catalogue from the Berlinische Galerie traces his path: the early Expressionist works, gems of Dada from the Berlin years, Hausmann's photography, but also fashion, dance and literature, and the artist's lesser-known productivity in exile. Twelve essays by international experts in the history of art and literature, media studies, and psychoanalysis examine the multilayered oeuvre to offer a multifaceted panorama of Hausmann's astonishing significance—even today. Another appealing feature of the catalogue is its attractive, artistic design.
Raoul Hausmann (1886–1971) was an exceptionally innovative avant-garde artist. He co-invented collage, explored body, words, and space in early happenings, merged the visual with the haptic, and translated sound into images. In and beyond art, the provocative “Dadasoph” called out the establishment.

»Ein Multimedia-Visionär - und immer gegen den bürgerlichen Strich.«
Ingeborg Ruthe
Frankfurter Rundschau
»Er starb am 1. Februar 1971 in Limoges, blieb bis dahin aber unglaublich produktiv, was man nicht zuletzt anhand des akribisch erstellten und auch visuell bis ins kleinste Detail gelungenen Ausstellungskatalogs aufs Eindrücklichste nachverfolgen kann.«
Thomas Koppenhagen
Luxemburger Tagesblatt
»[...] spielt der auch typografisch ansprechend gemachte Katalog seinen Vorteil aus - mittels der hier versammelten 12 teils Neues ins Gesichtsfeld rückenden Essays dieses subjektive Gefühl der Ahnung objektivieren. Dass hier neben Kunsthistorikerinnen auch Literaturgeschichte, Medienwissenschaft und Psychoanalyse zu Wort kommen, erscheint zwangsläufig, wird aber viel zu selten probiert.«
