Bean Gilsdorf reviews Kurt Schwitters: Color and Collage at the Berkeley Art Museum on view through November 27, 2011.

Gilsdorf notes that "Schwitters' hallmark was hybridity… He was associated with and influenced by many movements, including Dada, Futurism, Cubism, and Constructivism, appropriating what he thought useful or provocative from each and synthesizing it with fragments from the next without becoming dogmatic about any of them."
