Merz (art Style)
Merz (art style) is a synonym for the more common expression and term Dada, and traces back to Kurt Schwitters. Origin Merz was conceptualized by Kurt Schwitters, who planned a Dada section in Hanover. However, upon being denied an invitation to the First International Dada Fair in Berlin in 1920, Schwitters wished to establish a subsect of the Dada movement that tailored to his own artistic philosophies and visions. In his own words, he wished to find a "''totally unique hat fitting only a single head"— his own''. Etymology The name ''Merz'' was generated by chance through a collage that incorporated the German word ''Kommerz'' (commerce). The resulting word, which was nonsensical and spontaneously generated, was similar in origin and philosophy to the title of Dada. ''Merz'' became Schwitters 's synonym for his own approach to Dada. Characteristics Like Dada, Merz was characterized by spontaneity and frequently made use of found objects. One of the most significant Merz art ...
