Post # 20 "D@D@ Mov3ment"

 Dadaism  is a cultural movement that began in Zurich, Switzerland, during World war 1 and peaked from 1916 to 1922.The movement primarily involved visual arts literature,poetry, art manifestos, art theory, and and graphic design and concentrated its anti-war politics through a rejection of the prevailing standards in art through anti-art cultural works. Its purpose was to ridicule what its participants considered to be the meaninglessness of the modern world. In addition to being anti-war, Dada was also anti-bourgeois and anarchist in nature.One good example of why this artwork represents the Dada movement is because this was made by a painter that was in the Dada movement in Marcel Duchamp.Obviously,if you were in the movement of course your painting is dadaism.More over this artists painting is  graphic design in my opinion,and this is one aspect of dadaism.A second good example is that this artwork looks like it was from a theatre position,or even a play but they made it look more modern or the new era.Clearly,as the reader can see this artwork is trying to show visual; communication.In conclusion,Dadaism was this artwork,and contributed to the making of it.
