DADAISM

REPRESENTATIVE: MARCEL DUCHAMP ， 1887-1968

Dada or Dadaism is a cultural movement that began in Zürich, Switzerland, during World War I and peaked from 1916 to 1922. The movement primarily involved visual arts, literature—poetry, art manifestoes, art theory—theatre, and graphic design, and concentrated its anti-war politics through a rejection of the prevailing standards in art through anti-art cultural works. Its purpose was to ridicule what its participants considered to be the meaninglessness of the modern world. In addition to being anti-war, dada was also anti-bourgeois and anarchistic in nature.

MY OPINION
Dadaism by a group of young artists and anti-war leaders, they though oppose the beautiful arts to show their values.They wanna tell us, unattractive arts also is an good art.
