Beschreibung
A 1942 collage by Kurt Schwitters, featuring layered ephemera and photographic fragments that explore themes of fragmentation and displacement.
Kurt Schwitters, a central figure in the Dada movement, developed his own approach to collage, which he termed Merz. This work, Untitled (D’Cily), created in 1942, demonstrates his method of repurposing discarded materials to construct new visual narratives. By assembling fragments of printed ephemera, tickets, and photographic clippings, Schwitters disrupts traditional modes of representation.
The composition is anchored by a central, abstract black and grey form that obscures the underlying imagery. Peering from behind this geometric block are human eyes, creating a tension between the hidden and the revealed. The surrounding elements include a small photographic portrait of a woman, text fragments, and a pair of legs positioned at the top, which further fragment the human form. The inclusion of the text 'Gallerie Moderner Meister' at the base adds a layer of irony, as the work itself is composed of the very refuse that traditional galleries of the time would have excluded.
Schwitters spent his later years in exile in Britain, and his work from this period often reflects the displacement and instability of the era. The materials used are not merely decorative; they are remnants of daily life, salvaged and recontextualised. The layering process creates a sense of depth, despite the flat nature of the paper components. This piece invites the viewer to consider the relationship between mass-produced imagery and the individual perspective. It is a study in fragmentation, where the artist forces a dialogue between disparate visual sources. The work remains a clear example of how Schwitters utilised the aesthetics of waste to comment on the cultural shifts of the mid-twentieth century.

Artist Biography
Kurt Schwitters
Schwitters built an artwork inside his house in Hanover. Starting around 1923, the Merzbau grew outward from a column of collaged objects in his studio until there was barely room to live. He worked on it for sixteen years. Allied bombing destroyed it in 1943. He built a second Merzbau in Lysaker, Norway. The Nazis invaded; he abandoned it. It burned down in 1951. He started a third at Cylinders Farm in the English Lake District. He died in January 1948, leaving it unfinished.
He was born in Hanover in 1887, an only child whose father ran a ladies' clothing shop. He suffered from epilepsy throughout his life. He fled to Norway in 1937, then to Scotland in 1940, where he was classified as an enemy alien and interned in camps including Hutchinson Camp on the Isle of Man. While interned, he allegedly made small sculptures from leftover oatmeal.
His art, which he called Merz (a fragment of the word Kommerz), used collage, found objects, poetry, sound art, typography, and installation. He worked across Dadaism, Constructivism, and Surrealism, often simultaneously. He was largely neglected by the time he died.
