[Literature & Art] [Brandt, Marianne (1893–1983),style of]. Untitled - photomontage. Photograph collage, no place, no date, but ca. 1920-30. 30.5 x 42 cm. Stamped monogram "BM" lower right. Verso with some stains and previous mounting tears and remnants, as well as unrelated signatures and a faint stamp "C 18", otherwise in fine condition.
The monogram on the present work is unknown to us. But the work itself is materially and thematically striking as it relates to the witty and incisive photomontages of Marianne Brandt, best known for the small household objects she designed in the Bauhaus metal workshop and for her experimental works in this medium. Her photomontages created in the mid-1920s and early 1930s, as here, frequently incorporate images of Hollywood film stars.
