“VO” – An Early Collage by Kassák
5 May - 5 June 2022
Lajos Kassák’s “VO” Collage is one of the artist’s few works that survive from the period 1920–22, and is a window into his first important Dadaist period. It was in those years that Kassák started his experimentation in art, and one of the many avenues he explored was a technique developed by Cubists and Dadaists, the collage. From 1921 onwards, Kassák used the term Picture Architecture for his work, through which he aimed at a virtual creation of future society. The back of the board of the “VO” Collage has also fortunately preserved several sketches of other Picture Architectures by Kassák. >>
