A few choice picks from the great photomontagists of postwar Berlin. You can see how these images built the foundation for the future of pop art. This work is so much smarter, more playful and more tactile than any of the computer/photoshop produced silliness that we've all seen. I know there are a few artists employing these techniques who have been getting serious consideration recently. Unfortunately the computer has enabled anything to be possible. Thereby making everything it produces considerably of less value.
