Hannah Höch: Life Portrait

What a treat we have in Life Portrait, The Green Box's small but certain new "collaged autobiography" of Berlin Dadaist and photomonteur Hannah Höch. Presenting 38 details of Höch's last and largest collage—finished in 1973, just five years before her death at the age of 83—the book allows the reader to zoom in, just as one would before the fascinating, revealing and yet still enigmatic finished artwork. Enlightening texts and perfectly chosen quotations accompany each detail. Alongside this image, we learn that Höch's gaze is doubled by the portrait of her cat, Panther, for example. "The small-format scene shows Höch with the photographer Armin Orgel-Köhne, who created the photographic material for Life Portrait together with Lisolotte Orgel-Köhne." Meta.
