Hauser Wirth & Schimmel presents a comprehensive exhibition of the renowned Dadaists Kurt Schwitters (1887 — 1948) and Hans Arp (1886 — 1966), in the context of works by the Spanish painter, graphic artist and sculptor Joan Miró (1893 — 1983). From the turn of the century, these three artists were united by the impulse to renew and transform art. Building on the achievements of Cubism, they pursued this goal through experimentation with collage and assemblage, generating radical new ideas to confront a Europe characterized by the catastrophe of war.
