Dada staple Hannah Hoch and Das Schnitzel

Lets cut to the chase, if Hannah Hoch is not credited as a founding member of the Dada Movement, it probably has to do with sexist reasons.

Born on November 1st, 1889 in Gotha in the German Empire, Hannah spent most of her upbringing in school (though her domestic life came first), attending the college of Applied Arts in Berlin, left to work at the Red Cross at the start of WW1, and returned to the National Institute of the Museum of Arts and Crafts.

It was her relationship with Raoul Hausmann in 1915 that would introduce her to the people who would be pivotal in developing the Berlin Dada movement, and just as importantly, help her become one of the first originators of the Photomontage style.

Hannah stood out amongst the group by being the only woman among them and was noted for her self-sufficiency, masculine presentation, and bisexuality. Her work spoke on subjects like the topic of the shifting gender roles, political discourse, racial discrimination, androgyny, and the "New Woman", who was free to vote, enjoy sexual encounters, and seek financial independence.

She was the last one of the Berlin Dada movement who remained in Berlin and faced immense censorship from the Nazi's. Even with all of the set backs, Hannah continued to exhibit her work internationally until her death in 1978.

Like many other Queer Artists, her contribution to art is irrefutable, and to help celebrate and pay tribute to such an incredible arts, we're sharing a simple recipe for,

What does TikTok’s “corecore” have to do with Dada?

There’s a novel trend sweeping across TikTok known as “Corecore,” a sarcastic play on the suffix “-core” that web users tack onto a variety of different nouns in reference to niche aesthetics and micro-trends like bimbocore, glitchcore, and normcore.

But as some users on the platform have pointed out, Corecore bears a striking resemblance to the century-old artistic movement known as Dada. Tiktok user @aamirazh and several other art history aficionados have highlighted how both operate through the “artist’s act of choice” to attribute meaning to the meaningless.

Rhea Nayyar breaks it down in her latest article.

Cabaret Voltaire were an English music group formed in Sheffield in 1973 and initially composed of Stephen Mallinder, Richard H. Kirk, and Chris Watson. The group was named after the Cabaret Voltaire, the Zürich nightclub that served as a centre for the early Dada movement.

The early work of Cabaret Voltaire consisted primarily of experimentation with DIY electronics and tape machines, as well as Dada-influenced performance art, helping to pioneer industrial music in the mid-1970s. Finding an audience during the post-punk era, they integrated their experimental sensibilities with dance and pop styles.They are often characterized as among the most innovative and influential electronic groups of their era.

in memory of  Richard Kirk R.I.P. absolute genius of electronic synthetic sounds.
