JOHN HEARTFIELD & GERMAN PHOTO MONTAGE, 1920–1938
John Heartfield was a pioneer of modern photo montage and helped transform it into a powerful form of mass communication. Working in Germany and Czechoslovakia between the two world wars, he developed a unique method of appropriating and reusing photo graphs to powerful political effect. At a time of great uncertainty, Heartfield's agitated images forecasted and reflected the chaos Germany experienced in the 1920s and '30s as it slipped toward social and political catastrophe.
