A Dadaist photomontage from the 1920s, a chaotic scene built from disparate photographic and newsprint clippings. The scene, a greenhouse where mechanical plants are cultivated, is rendered with the harsh, crushed contrast of early reproduction photography. This composition, full of jarring juxtapositions in scale and content, captures the anti-art, anti-logic spirit of the Dada movement.
