SCHWITTERS Kurt Liberated and finding some support (the Museum of Modern Art of New York made him a grant), he undertook a Merzbau for the third time in an isolated farm near Ambleside, in the Lake District. This time it was death that interrupted his work in January 1948. Schwitters was childhood recaptured. He seemed to play with everything. To compose a poem or a picture, he resorted to the most trivial sentence, the most futile object: a used tramway ticket, a cork, valueless elements that, a scavenger of a new kind, he collected anywhere. Thereupon he transfigured these despised objects and showed that nothing is despicable. The tramway ticket glued in a certain way beside other cast-off things was no longer a ticket; it became part of a work whose value is literally inestimable. Touched by the artist's hands, objects suddenly changed their size and atmosphere. The whole animated them, gave them a soul. The artist was a kind of a miracle-worker whose touch transformed everything. Schwitters himself condensed this idea into a seemingly exaggerated phrase: 'Everything the artist spits is art'. It would be difficult to find an apter illustration of this truth than in his own life and work, for no one has shown better than he that art is indeed anything, if done in a certain way.

    Kurt Schwitters was born on 20 June 1887, at No.2 Rumannstraße , Hanover, the only child of Edward Schwitters and his wife Henriette (née Beckemeyer). His parents were proprietors of a ladies' clothes shop. They sold the business in 1898, using the money to buy five properties in Hanover which they rented out, allowing the family to live off the income for the rest of Schwitter's life in Germany. In 1901 the family moved to Waldstraße (later Waldhausenstraße) 5, future site of the Merzbau . The same year, Schwitters suffered his first

Kurt Schwitters is generally acknowledged as the twentieth century's greatest master of collage. Just as collage is essentially the medium of irony, so Schwitters' life is characterized by paradox and enigma. Born in Hanover, the only child of affluent parents, he was a loner in his youth, plagued by epileptic attacks, introverted and insecure, and as a student at the Dresden Academy of Art he proved as apt as he was unimaginative. Although his contact with Expressionist artists in Hannover in 1916 gave him more confidence to develop his own style, even his most impressive works (such as Mountain Graveyard ) were little more than imitations of his contemporaries. A major challenge came in 1918 with the invitation to exhibit at Herwarth Walden's notorious Sturm gallery in Berlin, for Walden had contacts with most progressive European artists, including the Zurich Dada group. Schwitters found further stimulus in the activities of the revolutionary Berlin Dadaists. (The generally accepted story that Schwitters was rejected by Berlin Dada is, however, not true.) But it was

John Heartfield
... Present Day
Kurt Schwitters was certainly the odd man out of German Dada. He lived, not in Berlin like the others, but in Hanover where he created a self-enclosed world from his many varied artistic outpourings. At a fairly early stage he was seen by the more politically motivated Dadaists as too petit bourgeois for those revolutionary times, but Schwitters was always his own man and thrived in this relative isolation. As he was not an accepted Dadaist, he started to call himself and his artistic output "Merz" (from a cut-up fragment of newspaper that had originally read "Kommerz".)
Whereas the raw material of most of the Dada montage of the times was photographic and relevant, Schwitters took his from the streets. The montages, collages and assemblages that he constructed from all this gathered refuse have an extraordinary integrity of vision, but they are certainly not in any way political, and it is easy to understand how Schwitters' comfortable artistic sensibility may have alienated the likes of Heartfield and Grosz.

Kurt Schwitters
Hannover 1887 -
Ambleside/ Westmorland 1948
Kurt Schwitters attended the Kunstgewerbeschule in Hanover from 1908 to 1909 and subsequently studied at the "Kunstakademie" in Dresden. The long academic education he had in Dresden, primarily under the Frans Hals-oriented Carl Bantzer, seemed to prepare for a rather conventional painter's career. Accordingly, his early works display little influence by the modern age.
In 1917 the 30 year-old artist was drafted into military service, which he spent in the orderly room, due to his suffering from epilepsy. He was discharged after four months. The impressions of the war and the inflation made him a modern artist, who even left Expressionism behind; his first collages emerged in 1918, for which Kurt Schwitters used litter found by chance.
His art and literary texts became a Dadaist institution in Hanover, which he called "Merz", a fragment of the word "Commerzbank".
"Anna Blume", a collection of poems and prosaic texts published in 1919, made him famous far beyond Hanover's boundaries. He got in contact with Herwarth Walden, Hans Arp and Tristan Tzara and took part in the "Sturm"-exhibitions in New York and Zurich. His strong ties to the Bauhaus-artists, the Dutch Dadaists and constructivists, to whom he dedicated the first issue of the "Merz"-magazine in 1923, became important for Schwitters as well.

Brief biography, the poem (in German) An Anna Blume and an essay on, and excerpts from, his Ursonate .
http://www.peak.org/~dadaist/English/Graphics/schwitters.html
Kurt Schwitters
Kurt Schwitters was an artist, graphic designer, typographer, set designer and poet who moved to Hannover in 1919 after completing his studies at the Berlin Akademie. It was there that he started his own specific flavor of DaDaism, which he called "Merz" (allegedly from the name 'ComMERZ Bank'). From 1923-1932 he published a magazine called "Merz" in which he published his poems and art. In 1926, after a trip to Prague, he began work on his Ursonate which he performed throughout Europe for years afterward.
One of his poems, "An Anna Blume" , the first line of which is "Oh Du, Geliebte meiner 27 Sinne" (Oh, thou most beloved of my 27 senses) became the title work in the collage I was involved in in Leverkusen, Germany, in 1992-93.

Kurt Schwitters Archives
Kurt Schwitters Ôuvre List The Kurt Schwitters Archives in the Sprengel Museum Hannover were set up in 1994 and contain the most comprehensive documentation of the artistic work of Kurt Schwitters (1887 - 1948). The archives were put together by the artist's son, Ernst Schwitters, and are the source of the Òuvre list being drawn up in the Sprengel Museum Hannover. The Sprengel Museum Hannover is always very pleased to receive information about privately or publicly owned work by Schwitters. Please contact the Sprengel Museum Hannover, Dr Karin Orchard or Dr Isabel Schulz, Kurt-Schwitters-Platz, 30169 Hannover, Germany, T +49 511 16 84 - 46 48 /1684 - 62 12, Fax +49 511 16 84 -50 93. All information will, of course, be handled with the utmost discretion. Kurt Schwitters was one of the outstanding artists of the 1920s. Including numerous works on permanent loan, the Sprengel Museum Hannover has more than 108 original works by Schwitters. The Schwitters Archives in the Stadtbibliothek (Municipal Library) contain numerous personal documents, his correspondence, and writing by and about Kurt Schwitters. So what could be more appropriate than to collect information and documents about the life and work of this internationally important modern artist in his native city, Hanover. In 1993 the artist's son, Ernst Schwitters, handed over the archives concerning his father's artistic Òuvre to the Sprengel Museum Hannover, on condition that the museum continue to add to them and look after them. For some 40 years Ernst Schwitters, whose starting point was his father's voluminous legacy, with which he had been entrusted, worked on a photographic and written documentation of all the work known to him. The archives are in chronological order and currently list some 3,000 works.
