Kurt Schwitters: The Schwitters Scandal

1986 · 50 min Documentary

The Schwitters scandal was pure DADA! While he was alive, Schwitters provoked the art world with his one-man Dada movement Merz, which united painting, sculpture, architecture and literature in fragments. After his death he hit the headlines due to several sensational inheritance lawsuits involving his heirs, a mistress, the Norwegian government, and the Marlborough Gallery - which had gained notoriety in the Rothko scandal. Looking back on Schwitters’ life and work, this film unravels a bizarre story of deceit, intrigue, power and money.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Kurt Schwitters: The Schwitters Scandal is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1986. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
