The Zweemann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zweemann , subtitled monthly for poetry and art , was a late Expressionist - Dadaist magazine that was published from November 1919 to August 1920 by the Zweemann Verlag by Robert Goldschmidt and Fritz Jacobsen .

The editors were Christof Spengemann , Friedrich Wilhelm Wagner and Hans Schiebelhuth . Employees included Kurt Schwitters , Paul Steegemann , Curt Habicht , Salomo Friedländer (stage name "Mynona") and Alfred Henschke (stage name "Klabund"). The magazine appeared in eight editions, parallel to fifteen books from the Zweemann publishing house. A Zweemann exhibition with contemporary Hanoverian artists took place in January 1920. In 1932 an attempt was made - unsuccessfully - to revive the magazine.

A reprint appeared in 1969 by Kraus Reprint .
