All things Dada.

r/dadaism

Dada is not art; Dada is anti-art. For everything that art stands for, Dada is to represent the opposite. Where art is concerned with æsthetics, Dada ignores them. If art is to have at least an implicit or latent message, Dada strives to have no meaning: interpretation of Dada is dependent entirely on the viewer. If art is to appeal to sensibilities, Dada offends them.
