The German Dada artist Hannah Höch came to prominence in the 1910s, when she started experimenting with a new technique—photomontage. Armed with scissors and glue, she played with the popular perceptions of women at the time, specifically tweaking the feminist ideal of the androgynous and energetic “New Woman.” Taking images from popular journals and fashion magazines, Höch cut them up and reconstructed the parts, creating early explorations of gender and identity. The Dada artists were sexist, and not all that accepting of Höch. Yet she was one of the first artists who recognized the power of photographs. This major show explores her enduring impact. —Elena Clavarino
