June 19, 1891 - April 26, 1986
John Heartfield, a political photomontage artist affiliated with and influenced by the Dada movement, was born Helmut Herzfeld in Berlin, Germany.
An active communist in 1920s and 30s Berlin, Heartfield undermined Nazi propaganda through his use of satiric artistic representation. By appropriating and reusing photographs to political effect, he transformed photomontage into a powerful form of mass communication.
