The SCHIRN is dedicating the world’s first comprehensive solo exhibition to the pioneer of the Dada movement, Suzanne Duchamp (1889–1963). The retrospective shows her multifaceted oeuvre as an artist whose work extended over a period of fifty years and who contributed to the development of Dadaism during the 1910s and 1920s.
