13–34. Kurt Schwitters, pages from Merz 11

Ads for Pelikan tusche and inks demonstrate Schwitters’s growing interest in constructivism during the 1920s. Merz was first published in 1923 and continued with twenty-three more issues until 1932. Designers such as El Lissitsky and Jan Tschichold were often involved, but Schwitters remained its editor.
