Born in the midst of World War I, Dada posed a fundamental challenge to established social values and artistic norms. The 1910s and early 1920s marked the birth of the illustrated press and radio broadcasting, the commercial cinema, and the industrial assembly line - phenomena that all contributed to shaping this extraordinarily dynamic movement, which had an enormous influence on the art and culture of later decades. Looking at Dada is intended as an accessible introduction to Dada and its times. The book examines some thirty major, representative artworks from principal cities where the movement took hold: Zurich, Berlin, Paris, and New York. Largely drawing on The Museum of Modern Art's unparalleled collection of Dada artworks, it investigates all of the major areas and processes in which the Dada artists worked, including abstraction and figuration; painting, sculpture, printmaking, and photography; the Readymade, collage, and photomontage; as well as poetry, performance, and the applied arts. |
