	Jean Arp
		Jean Arp (also called Hans Arp) was born in Alsace and studied at the Strasbourg School of Arts and Crafts, at Weimar (1905-7) and the Academie Julian, Paris (1908).
		At a time when he began to turn towards full 3-D sculptures, Arp insisted that his sculpture was 'concrete' rather than 'abstract', since it occupied space, and that art was a natural generation of form: 'a fruit that grows in man', as he put it.

		Arp was one of the founders of the Dada group in 1916, which held its tumultuous meetings at the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich.
		Arp, now a committed Dadaist, abandoned the cubist rigors of the previous 2 years for an art that was whimsical in spirit and biomorphic in form.
		Arp's Dadaist art represented the fanciful and poetic, rather than the nihilistic and morbid, side of the movement, and he gave his works humorous titles.

	Review: Jean Arp, Fundacio Joan Miro, Barcelona \| Arts critics \| Guardian Unlimited Arts
		Coming across Arp in some popular survey book of last century's modern art (usually one of his flatly painted, fret-sawed and screwed-together wooden reliefs, which always look amiable on the page, but also clunky and somehow ephemeral) we are inclined to flip the page.
		Arp retired briefly to a monastery, read Christian mystics and Tibetan philosophy, and went on being an artist, though for a long time one in despair.
		Arp was a kind of stateless artist, just as he was a stateless man. He was, in his way, a consummate 20th-century European figure.

	MoMA.org \| The Collection \| Jean (Hans) Arp. Collage with Squares Arranged According to the Laws of Chance. (1916-17)
		Arp's serenely beautiful collage is nevertheless a characteristic Dada work, made in Zurich, the first Dada center, in 1916–1917.
		As with Arp's contemporaneous drawings, "chance" was a liberating idea, a method of beginning a work of art that evaded traditional composition, but not an avoidance of composition itself.
		Hans Richter, Arp's colleague, claims that the "law of chance" was discovered when Arp tore up a failed drawing and was struck by the pattern it made on the floor.
