10/7

The article about Hannah Hoch was interesting to me. Obviously this woman didn't have any problem voicing what she believed and thought was right. It takes a strong woman in that time period to stand up for what she believed. It is interesting that she was the only woman among the Dadaist/ avant-garde poets. Her idea of photomontage is most likley more popular than she ever imagined it would be when she first came up with the thought. Reading about some of the different photomontage collections she produced leads me to believe she was a unique individual with a very creative lifestyle. Through photomontage, Hoch was able to get her point about gender roles across in a somewhat suddle way. Overall, I believe Hoch was a woman who could make a stand for all women of her time due to her strong opinions and unique ideas about presenting them to the world.
