László Moholy-Nagy designed several theater and film sketches throughout his career by creating collages or, using his term, Photoplastiks. One of these collage sketches – Huhn Bleibt Huhn (Once a Chicken Always a Chicken, 1925) – was an interpretation of his friend Kurt Schwitters’ novella titled Auguste Bolte (1923). Incidentally, Max Ernst drew the figure of the title character whose head appears in flames, perhaps alluding to her demonstration of arbitrariness in her stuttering realization that “[m]an had to make a decision. And he had to decide. And he had to decide, not because he had to decide, but precisely because it didn’t matter whether he decided and how he decided.”
