WHY DOES IT MATTER? The name "DADA" has unclear origins. Most believe it's meaning is supposedly a nonsense word, others believe it derives of the Romanian word "DADA" which means "yes yes" DADA was an art movement formed during WW1, and was a clear negative reaction to the horrors of war. DADA mocked materialism, and the art created from DADA was not thought of aesthetically. Born in Zurich Unlike futurist, DADA was anti-war. But also anti-mission. They just wanted to shame the WW1. DADA was designed to be misunderstood. In tune with the modern art movement, where the world's culture was moving away from the traditional means of copying an image, (due to the introduction of photography) DADA art was supposed to be spastic. The rapid change in modern art left traditional art unequipped to represent the modern world, and is why DADA art was created. DADA rejected rationality, and was made in a way that any artist could create whatever they liked. On the subject of DADA, Hans Victor said; "...it was an artistic revolt against art" Art and literature were created by mostly men who had already fought in the war, in order to reveal the reality of what the true war experience is, unlike what propaganda explains or portrays DADA heavily influenced all abstract art mediums (cubism, futurism, etc), but was most evident in surrealism in North American Artists. DADA art often focused on the lifestyle of a common soldier. What makes the art of the early 20th century different, is that in no time in history has humans ever heavily focused on anyone other than the higher power (be it a King, Pharaoh, etc) DADA artist shared a sensibility, but not a same style. DADA artists rejected mass media and propaganda.
