註釋
It would be impossible to overstate the importance of that moment when, in the artistic upheaval of the interwar years, the young Kurt Schwitters created his own art form, "MERZ", out of wood, labels, bus tickets, and various other detritus. Kurt Schwitters 'I is Style' reproduces over twenty texts -- poems, anecdotes, essays, and statements of purpose -- by Schwitters and his contemporaries Tristan Tzara, Hans Arp, and Hans Richter. In addition, four major essays look closely at various aspects of Schwitters' work: distinguished art scholar Rudi Fuchs writes on Schwitters art in the context of Expressionism, German Schwitters authority Siegfried Gohr examines Schwitters' ideas on the creative process and looks at his singular place in art history; Gunda Luyken's subject is Schwitters and America -- his enthusiasm for the country and his contacts with American artists and writers, and Dorothea Dietrich explores his use of collage.
