The “Reconstructed” exhibit features work by German painter and sculptor Max Ernst, who fought in WWI and was reportedly traumatized by the experience, producing art that was partly concerned with the subject of mental illness.

    Vol 1 (2011) | ISSN 2155-1162 (online) | DOI 10.5195/contemp.2011.27 http://contemporaneity.pitt.edu “The Man of these Infinite Possibilities” Max Ernst’s Cinematic Collages Abigail Susik Abstract On more than one occasion in his critical writings of the 1920’s, surrealist leader André Breton compared Max Ernst’s collages to cinema. In his first essay on the artist in 1921, Breton aligned Ernst’s collages with cinematic special effects such as slow and accelerated motion, and spoke of the illusionistic ‘transformation from within’ that characterized Ernst’s constructed scenes. For Breton, Ernst’s collages employing found commercial, scientific and journalistic images approximated the naturalistic movement of film, and thereby contributed to the radical obsolescence of traditional two-dimensional media such as painting and drawing, which remained frozen in stillness. Thus, Ernst’s images were provocative witnesses to the way in which modern technology fundamentally altered the perspectivally-ordered picture plane. But at the same time that Ernst’s collages rendered painting obsolete, they likewise depended upon fragments of outmoded popular culture themselves. For Breton, Ernst was a magician, “the man of these infinite possibilities,” comparable to cinematic prestidigators like turn-of-the-century filmmaker Georges Méliès. By drawing on the influence of recently outmoded popular culture such as early trick films, Ernst provides a crucial early example of the post-war fixation on counter-temporalities and anti-production. At once technologically advanced and culturally archeological, Ernst’s collages cannily defy strict categorization as “Modernist.” About the Author Abigail Susik is the 2009-2011 Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow in Art History at Millsaps College in Jackson, Mississippi.

  • Francis Picabia's Anti-Art Anti-Christ
    Jésus-Christ Rastaquouère: Francis Picabia’s Anti-Art Anti-Christ Sarah Hayden Jésus-Christ Rastaquouère was published in Paris in the autumn of 1920.1 After protracted, ultimately abortive, negotiations with René Hilsum and Bernard Grasset, it was produced at Francis Picabia’s own expense under the ‘Collection Dada’ imprint of Paris bookseller-publishers, Au Sans Pareil, and distributed by Jacques Povlovsky’s Librairie-Galerie La Cible.2 The fact that Ezra Pound was an early proponent of Picabia’s writing is not surprising; the fact that his enthusiastic early reading of Jésus-Christ Rastaquouère has not been succeeded by extensive further scholarship certainly is. Having dismissed Picabia in 1916 as a proponent of ‘modern froth’,3 by 1921 Pound was willing to praise his prowess ‘not exactly as a painter, but as a writer’.4 In the same year, Pound 1.

Picabia also used the ‘rasta’ prefix in his visual art of this period, including Tableau rastadada (1920) (collage on paper, 19 x 17 cm), and Le Rastaquouère (1920). The latter of these was exhibited at the Salon d’automne, Paris, October 1920. For an illuminating treatment of the Tableau rastadada, see George Baker, ‘Long live Daddy’, October, 105 (2003), 37–72.

  • Tristan Tzara, Az Irodalmi Montázs És a Dadaglobe1
    Adrian Sudhalter Tristan Tzara, az irodalmi montázs és a Dadaglobe1 „Egyszerűen egy jelentéktelen szavacska, amely valahogy bekerült az európai körforgásba, egy szavacska, amivel az ember à l’aise [könnyedén] elzsonglőrködhet; új jelentéseket gondolhat ki, toldalékokat adhat hozzá, olyan összetett szavakat alkothat vele, amelyek a tárgyra utalás illúzióját keltik: dadazófus, dadagödör.” Roman Jakobson: Dada (1921)2 Bármely eszmecserének, amely az avantgárd montázsgyakorlatról szól, egy- ben a dadáról is kell szólnia. És bármely eszmecserének, amely a dada montázs- gyakorlatról szól, egyben a Dadaglobe-ról is kellene szólnia. A mozgalom e re- ménybeli antológiája, amelyet 1921-ben terveztek kiadni, soha nem látott meny- nyiségű vizuális és verbális montázst tartalmazott volna, és felépítéséből, grafi kai tervezéséből eredően nem lett volna egyéb, mint egy kirobbanó erejű, százhatvan oldalnyi, képekből és szövegekből álló montázs. A dada társalapítója, Tristan Tz- ara által szerkesztett könyvnek azonban egészen mostanáig homályban kellett maradnia, mivel túllépték vele a költségkeretet, és kikezdték a közreműködők jóindulatát, így nem is adták ki soha. Habár sem szedési vázlat, sem próbanyo- mat nem maradt fenn a Dadaglobe-ról, nemrég archív nyomok alapján napvilágra került egy nagyszabású régészeti kutatás keretében, egy olyan projektként be- mutatva, amely a weimari kor nagyszabású, ambíciózus és befejezetlen montázs projektjeinek – például Aby Warburg Mnemosyné-atlaszának és Walter Benjamin Passzázsok című művének – sorába emeli.3 A Dadaglobe legújabb rekonstrukcióját a megvalósulatlan kötet teljes történeté- ről szóló kiadvány is kíséri – a kezdetektől a hanyatláson át az utóéletig. Itt ezzel ellentétben arra koncentrálok, hogy milyen formát öltött volna a könyv; annak átfogó felépítésére tehát, amely véleményem szerint kérlelhetetlenül ragaszkodik 1 A tanulmány először angol nyelven jelent meg a Before Publication.

  • Readings: War Poetry and Dada
    017_War-Poetry_Dada.doc READINGS: WAR POETRY AND DADA Background Various war poems Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet on the Western Front Background: Eugen Weber, Dada Tzara, Dada Manifesto Tzara, "Lecture on Dada" Interpretations of Duchamp, The Bride Stripped Bare… GROVEART.COM DADAISM Artistic and literary movement launched in Zurich in 1916 but shared by independent groups in New York, Berlin, Paris and elsewhere. The Dadaists channelled their revulsion at World War I into an indictment of the nationalist and materialist values that had brought it about. They were united not by a common style but by a rejection of conventions in art and thought, seeking through their unorthodox techniques, performances and provocations to shock society into self-awareness. The name Dada itself was typical of the movement’s anti- rationalism. Various members of the Zurich group are credited with the invention of the name; according to one account it was selected by the insertion of a knife into a dictionary, and was retained for its multilingual, childish and nonsensical connotations. The Zurich group was formed around the poets hugo Ball, Emmy Hennings, tristan Tzara and richard Huelsenbeck, and the painters hans Arp, marcel Janco and hans Richter. The term was subsequently adopted in New York by the group that had formed around marcel Duchamp, francis Picabia, Marius de Zayas (1880–1961) and Man ray. The largest of several German groups was formed in Berlin by Huelsenbeck with john Heartfield, raoul Hausmann, hannah Höch and george Grosz. As well as important centres elsewhere (Barcelona, Cologne and Hannover), a prominent post-war Parisian group was promoted by Tzara, Picabia and andré Breton.
