Kurt Schwitters (German, 1887-1948) was a key figure in the Dada movement, best known for his collage-based Merz works combining found materials and typography.

Theo van Doesburg (Dutch, 1883-1931) was a painter, designer and founder of the De Stijil movement, known for his geometric abstraction and theoretical writings on modern art.

I think I got this in the early 2000s on my first (and thus far only) trip to Paris. My mom and I went to visit The Louvre and it was packed with tourists. We acquired this Dada print from the Louvre museum shop, a collaboration between the Centre Pompidou and Flammarion, the French publishing house. It has been rolled up in a tube ever since.
