	Dada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dada or Dadaism is a cultural movement that began in neutral Zürich, Switzerland, during World War I and peaked from 1916 to 1920.
		Dada was an international movement, and it is difficult to classify artists as being from any one particular country, as they were constantly moving from one place to another.
		In 1967, a large Dada retrospective was held in Paris, France.

		Dada as a movement declined in the 1920s, and some of its practitioners became prominent in other modern-art movements, notably surrealism.

		Dada blasted onto the scene in 1916 with ear-splitting enthusiasm: rowdy, brazen, irreverent, and assaulting.

		The Object (Dada Mail) inherents all the beauty of its contemporary world which it is grounded in (i.e., it couldn't have been made 20 years ago or 20 years in the future) and also literally communicates ideas on its own with the various email messages it helps in sending out.

		Her "junk art" 1918 Dada portrait of the photographer Berenice Abbott, who called von Freytag-Loringhoven a friend and a great influence, is made from a brush, stones, metal objects, cloth, paint, and various detritus.

	Information on Dadaism
		Dada was more than an art form or culture; it was a state of mind.
		DADA: This word was seized upon by the Dadaists at the Cabaret Cafe in 1916 when a paper knife was found inserted into a dictionary pointing to the term "dada." This infant language for "hobbyhorse" was found appropriate for the group's anti-aesthetic creations and protest activities.
		However, in the mid 1950's, a Dadaism revival occurred in New York, indicating that it was and still is a very prominent and important artistic movement in the world of arts.

	Mark Harden's Artchive: "Dada and Surrealism"
		Dada began as an anti-art movement or, at least, a movement against the way art was appreciated by what considered itself the civilized world; Surrealism was much more than an art movement and it thrust home Dada's subversive attack on rational and 'civilized' standards.
		The word 'Dada', ambiguously denoting both 'hobby horse' and 'father', was arrived at by chance and gained immediate acceptance by its suitably childish and nonsensical ring.
		Dada gave much to the Surrealist Movement and was finally absorbed by it in Paris in the mid-1920s.

	ArtLex on Dada
		Literally, the word dada means several things in several languages: it's French for "hobbyhorse" and Slavic for "yes yes." Some authorities say that the name Dada is a nonsensical word chosen at random from a dictionary.
		Arp was a founding member of the first Dada group that coalesced in Zurich in 1916 around the Cabaret Voltaire of Hugo Ball, the poet and performer.
		"Dada," wrote Arp, "wished to destroy the hoaxes of reason and to discover an unreasoned order." While this work is far less violent than some of the rhetoric of Dada, Arp's use of serendipitous composition here embodies what has been called the heart of Dada practice: the gratuitous act.

	Dada
		“Dada is ‘yes, yes’ in Rumanian, ‘rocking horse’ and ‘hobby horse’; in French,” he noted in his diary.
		But Dada would die out in less than a decade and has not had the kind of major museum retrospective it deserves, until now.
		“Dada wished to replace the logical nonsense of the men of today with an illogical nonsense,” wrote Gabrielle Buffet-Picabia, whose artist husband, Francis Picabia, once tacked a stuffed monkey to a board and called it a portrait of Cézanne.

	DADA
		Dada revelled in absurdity, and emphasised the role of the unpredictable in artistic creation.
		Irreverence was another key feature: in one of Dada's most notorious exhibitions, organised by Max Ernst, axes were provided for visitors to smash the works on show.
		While perhaps seeming flippant on the surface, the Dada artists were actually fuelled by disillusionment and moral outrage at the unprecedented carnage of World War One, and the ultimate aim of the movement was to shock people out of complacency.

	DADA WITHOUT DUCHAMP / DUCHAMP WITHOUT DADA
		At a Dada exhibition in Dusseldorf, I was impressed that though Schwitters and Picabia and the others had all become artists with the passing of time, Duchamp's work remained unacceptable as art.
		Richter recognizes (and I have written of this elsewhere) that the Dada "aggressive, polemical manifesto" owes a great deal to Futurism, especially so far as typography and layout are concerned, but he distinguishes between the programmatic Futurist manifestos and Dada's anti-programmatic stance (HR 33-35).
		It will no longer do, then, to talk of Dada as what Michel Sanouillet calls a "bund, whose purposes were identical, and who had banded together their talents and energies to wage an excruciating war against society as a whole." At the same time, we must not expect the current movement ethos to disappear.

	Tzara, "Dadaism"
		Those who acted as if Dada were important enough to resign from with a big noise have been motivated by a desire for personal publicity, proving that counterfeiters have always wriggled like unclean worms in and out of the purest and most radiant religions.
		Dada is here, there and a little everywhere, such as it is, with its faults, with its personal differences and distinctions which it accepts and views with indifference.
		Dada applies itself to everything, and yet it is nothing, it is the point where the yes and the no and all the opposites meet, not solemnly in the castles of human philosophies, but very simply at street corners, like dogs and grasshoppers.
