| | Dadaism: Learn About Art and the Dada art movement |
 | | The Dadaists were mainly a group of ill-organized artists experimenting with bizarre art and literature. | | | The Dadaists felt that art and literature had been exploited purely for money; and that artists had somehow lost the true identity of art. | | | The young Dadaists felt that the creators of modern art had become snared by self-indulging greed, and had lost their sense of "true" direction. |

| | Dada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | At the same time that the Zürich Dadaists made noise and spectacle at the Cabaret Voltaire, Vladimir Lenin wrote his revolutionary plans for Russia in a nearby apartment. | | | By 1924, Dada was melding into surrealism, and artists had gone on to other ideas and movements, including socialist realism and other forms of modernism. | | | Zürich Dada, with Tzara at the helm, published the art and literature review, Dada,[2] beginning in July 1917, with five editions from Zürich and the final two from Paris. |

| | dada is a life style, not art |
| | In the eyes of the dadaists the role of art and the artist was something completely different from the genius who produced works which were not from this planet. | | | According to dadaists art had to stand in between the real life. | | | The paintings, poems, manifests, novels, magazines, typography, cabaret, music and other thing dadaists produced under the label dada can by no means be brought under a clear and cut art historical definition. |

| | Dada defined |
| | In their efforts to express the negation of all current aesthetic and social values, the Dadaists frequently used artistic and literary methods that were deliberately incomprehensible. | | | Their theatrical performances and manifestos were often designed to shock or bewilder, with the aim of startling the public into a reconsideration of accepted aesthetic values. | | | French painter Marcel Duchamp exhibited as works of art ordinary commercial products÷such as a store-bought bottle rack and a urinal÷which he called ready-mades. |

| | They did not restrict themselves to being painters, writers, dancers, or musicians; most of them were involved in several art forms and in breaking down the boundaries which kept the arts distinct from one another. | | | Indeed, the Dadaists were not content to make art. | | | While Salvador Dalí was not part of the Dada movement, their ideas shaped his work. |

| | Throughout his article, Zurbrugg mentions Dada and the “Dadaistic” qualities of postmodernism, without ever seeming to realize that postmodernism doesn't just have a few “Dadaistic” characteristics, but rather is overwhelmingly Dada in its basic assumptions and concepts. | | | Dada was a major force in Europe (particularly France), where a great deal of intentionally annoying and provocative visual art, literature, poetry, performance art, and music were produced in its name. | | | He, like many Dadaists, believed that the establishment would use visual art as a way of creating a particular version of reality. |

| | Marcel Janco, Dada Movement Founder |
| | The Dadaists teased and enraged the audience through their bold defiance of Western culture and art, which they considered obsolete in view of the destruction and carnage of World War I. The Dadaists objected to the aesthetics of Western contemporary painting, sculpture, language, literature and music. | | | Marcel Janco, a renown painter and founder of the Dadaist movement (anti-artists) was a contemporary of Pablo Picasso who belonged to the Dadaists Group in Paris. | | | Marcel Janco, born in Romania in 1895, had joined a group of artists at the Cafe Voltaire in Zurich, Switzerland in 1916 and was among the principal founders of the Dada Movement. |

| | Republicans, Dadaists Declare War On Art The Onion - America's Finest News Source |
| | Centered in Berlin, Paris and Zurich, the Dadaist movement was launched as a reaction of revulsion to the senseless butchery of World War I. "While the guns rumbled in the distance," Arp said, "we had a dim premonition that power-mad gangsters would one day use art itself as a means of deadening men's minds." | | | "So-called modern art is, at its core, an absurd and purposeless exercise," Helms said, echoing the Dadaists' illustration of the meaninglessness of art. | | | In a show of solidarity with the Republican legislators, Andre Breton, who founded the surrealist movement in 1923, fired a pistol at random into the crowd, conceptually evoking the hideous irrationality of the collective unconscious and wounding Hatch. |

| | While in Zürich, many of these artists and writers continue to publish and exhibit their works; having taken strong anti-war views themselves, their art also shows such opinions of disgust towards the activities of the rest of the continent. | | | After a publication of a surrealist manifesto by Breton, most of the remaining dadaists join the surrealism movement. | | | Picabia and Breton publish works attacking the dadaists, who led by Tzara, publish a counter-attack, but the Paris DaDa group also dissolves. |

| | In the Met Theater's production of first-time playwright Christian Jon Meoli's dramedydramedy "The Dadaists," the spirited actors, representing writers, artists and musicians who performed at Zurich's Cabaret Voltaire, pounce on their parts like starving animals tearing into a fresh piece of meat. | | | Since Dada is remembered primarily for its enduring works of art that opened the door to surrealism, classic reproductions by Duchamp, Arp or Man Ray might have been utilized onstage to illustrate the results of so much angst. | | | By sheer will they portray the art movement's chaotic response to snobbish, traditional artistic boundaries. |

| | Dada, early 20th-century art movement, whose members sought to ridicule the culture of their time through deliberately absurd performances, poetry, and visual art. | | | Dada is often described as nihilistic—that is, rejecting all moral values; however, dadaists considered their movement an affirmation of life in the face of death. | | | Dadaists work was driven in part by a belief that deep-seated European values—nationalism, militarism, and even the long tradition of rational philosophy—were implicated in the horrors of the war. |

| | Mona Lisa: Biography and Much More From Answers.com |
| | In 1919, Marcel Duchamp, one of the most influential Dadaists, made a Mona Lisa parody by adorning a cheap reproduction with a moustache and a goatee, as well as adding the rude inscription LHOOQ, when read out loud in French sounds like "Elle a chaud au cul" (which means "She has a hot arse"). | | | Because of the painting's overwhelming stature, Dadaists and Surrealists often produce modifications and caricatures. | | | This was intended as a Freudian joke, referring to Leonardo's alleged homosexuality. |

| | Dadaism: Historical Overview. |
| | But the effects of Dada are not limited to the world of the arts; its impact on contemporary life has been felt from the streets of Chicago to Madison Avenue. | | | The style of political protest which came to the forefront in the late sixties--mock trials, Yippies, Guerrilla theater--can readily be traced back to the actions of the Dadaists in Zurich during the First World War. | | | And commercial advertising as we know it today is indebted to the Dadaists' experiments with collage and typography; indeed, two members of the Berlin Dada group founded a "Dada Advertising Agency," and the Hanover Dadaist Kurt Schwitters designed newspaper and magazine advertisements which pioneered techniques we now take for granted. |

| | With this in mind, Surrealists and Dadaists used arbitrary patterns, rhythmical noise, and mere chance arrangements of words and sounds - particularly in brutist and simultaneous poems where texts in different languages were read at the same time, and in other automatic or generative experimentation. | | | In this way, they rejected aesthetic conventions of perfection and order, harmony and beauty, and all bourgeois values and taste. | | | Poetry at the point of its execution (reading and hearing), produces meaning in multitudinous ways, and can be performed with endless variations of stress, pronunciation, tempo and style. |
