Detailed Description

Dadaism is a movement in the art world that began in the early 20th century. It was a reaction to the horrors of World War I, and the Dadaists were artists who believed that the traditional art world was too staid and conservative. They sought to shock and provoke with their art, and they were very successful in doing so. Some of the most famous Dadaist artists include Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, and Kurt Schwitters. Dadaist art is often characterized by its use of found objects, collage, and a sense of humor. One of the most famous Dadaist paintings is Duchamp’s “Fountain,” which is a urinal that he signed and submitted to an art exhibition. The Dadaists were also very active in the world of poetry, and they wrote some of the most innovative and experimental poetry of the 20th century.
