Masterworks. Dada and New Objectivity. Otto Dix: Flanders
Description
The First World War brought radical changes to the world, and art responded with breaks in tradition and provocative concepts. Whereas Dadaists such as Hannah Höch exposed society in seemingly absurd, naïve collages using fragments of daily life, artists such as Otto Dix documented the terror of the trenches and the cesspools of vice with harsh realism in his painting, Flanders.
