The true unsung muse of the Dada art movement of the 1910s was a woman ahead of her time. Thrice married, thrice abandoned, the Baroness Elsa kept rising from ashes over and over. With her outlandish fashions, penchant for nudity and ability to see the magic and art in the world that's invisible to others, Elsa enthralled and inspired everyone who met her, but remained unknown to the world at large, and died tragically unknown and penniless. Was she mad, a genius or both? Either way, she changed the art world forever.
