established art ideals

Renaissance?

30. Dada – the anti-movement (1916-1925)
Dada had only one rule: Never follow any known rules
• Began in Zurich in response to WWI
• Where does the word “dada” come from?
• Intended to provoke an emotional reaction from the viewer (typically
SHOCK or OUTRAGE)
• Nonsensical to the point of whimsy. Almost all of the people who created it
were ferociously serious, though.
• Main influences: Abstraction and Expressionism
• No predominant medium in Dadaist art.
All things from geometric tapestries to
glass to plaster and wooden reliefs were
fair game.
Assemblage, collage, photomontage and
the use of ready made objects all gained
wide acceptance.
• Spawned many offshoots: best-known is
Surrealism.
