    Hannah Höch, Cut with the Kitchen Knife Dada Through the Last Weimar Beer-Belly Cultural Epoch of Germany, 1919–20 , collage, mixed media, (Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin).

    A collage work. The word dada appears three different times. The other images are an assortment of people, crowds, and man made times, such as wheels and buildings. The collage is primarily newsprint faded to browns and yellows, but near the top left, there is a blue woman whose face has been covered with a black rounded shape.
