We invite you to another meeting as part of The Mature for Art. Lecture, which will take place on August 13 aims to look at the photomontage, approximation of the context of its creation and relationships not only with art, but also mass culture or politics.

Industry development, technical progress, urban transformations or new communication measures have changed not only the lifestyle of the first 19th century, but also a way of receiving the world.
The new stimuli meant that everyday life was rapidly gaining pace, and a confrontation with this fascinating, but often terrifying dynamics, awakened the need to develop new ways to present and commenting the world around. Among them were photomontage and collage, which in the hands
of such creators, like Hannah Höch or John Heartfield, became a powerful means of commenting on the social and political reality of the then Weimar Republic.
