Sinossi
The evolving artwork and early, all-encompassing installation <i>Merzbau</i> was German Dadaist Kurt Schwitters’ obsession. He began building a fantastical structure inside his Hanover studio in 1923, which he conceived as a project without end. It gradually took over most of the house. He continued to work on it in different locations throughout his life, remarking that the <i>Merzbau</i> contained everything that was important to him. This groundbreaking volume results from the first of a series of Zurich-based symposia on the <i>Merzbau</i> and its legacy in contemporary architecture, art and society. The <i>Symposium Merzbau</i> sets a new standard for further research on Schwitter’s influential project. Edited by curator and writer Hans Ulrich Obrist, this book includes contributions by art historians, critics and architects--including Yona Friedman, Thomas Hirschorn and Gwendolen Webster--who discuss ways in which the <i>Merzbau</i> resonates in their fields, and provide new perspectives on Schwitters’ under-examined masterwork.
