HANNAH HOCH DA DA DAAAA

Euro fever has taken over here at junkprints. While I was street vending last weekend. A fine gentleman told me that my work reminded him of Hannah Hoch! Usually it sucks for anyone to tell ya that yer work reminds them of someone elses, except for in this case. Hannah Hoch is one one of my favorite artists. She's a German artist who helped shape the Dada movement and one of the foremothers of photomontage as a form of art. That's not all folks, during the whole Nazi reign she was one of the few major artists of her time and locale that didn't particite in all the government commissioned propaganda.
