Baargeld, and Heinrich and Angelika Hoerle, light the fuse amidst the hustle and bustle of Cologne in the Roaring Twenties: As Arp's and Baargeld's works are banned from an exhibit at the Kunstgewerbemuseum on Hansaring by the museum's director, Cologne's offshoot of the DADA movement rents out a new creative space - the atrium of the Weinhaus Winter on Schildergasse - in spring 1920.
