Paul Hartland Carnival. Composition with two masks . 1934

"Paul Hartland Carnival. Composition with two masks" is a 1934 photomontage by László Moholy-Nagy. The artwork features two masks, one white and one gold, positioned against a brightly colored background of green and yellow ribbons. The fragmented and layered composition, along with the use of bright colors, exemplifies the visual style of Moholy-Nagy's photomontages. The masks themselves are both realistic and abstracted, suggesting a sense of playfulness and theatricality. This work, now held in the Gemeentemuseum den Haag, is a testament to Moholy-Nagy's mastery of the photomontage medium and his exploration of the relationship between art and technology.
