Dada

1. Dada was an artistic and literary movement that began in 1916 in Zurich, Switzerland. It arose as a reaction to World War I, and the nationalism, and rationalism, which many thought had brought war about. This was created by Christine Battersby, 'Behold the Buffoon', I do not particularly like this art movement as I find it very weird and not normal. In the era of Dada, the element of buffoonery appealed to the Dadaists, the beginnings of Dada correspond to the outbreak of the World War 1, it was usually a protest against the bourgeois nationalist and colonialist interests which is what the Dadaists believed was the root to the war.
