Kurt Schwitters (18871948) is one of the most influential protagonists of the avant-garde, both as an artist and an author. With his utopia of the total Merz vision of the world he aimed at the unification of art and non-art. The art of assemblage and material art reached its first high point in his work; his Merzbau is regarded as a forerunner of present-day installations. After the end of the First World War Schwitters declared the syllable Merz" to be a word mark for his one-man movement and thereby propagated his wide-ranging creative work in almost all areas of art, literature and typography. The expression stands for a concept of the greatest possible unreservedness and artistic freedom in the choice of forms of expression. In Schwitterss compositions, apparently worthless things are resurrected and open up rich fields of association in new interactions. The publication draws on the wealth of material to be found in the artists estate, which is the subject of recent research."
