Dada

The Dada Movement had its beginnings in the midst of the turmoil of the Great War, 1914-1918, when a group of painters, writers and musicians coalesced in neutral Switzerland around the concepts of 'anti-art' and 'anti-reason'. Willy Verkauf has assembled a series of invaluable essays by many of the original Dadaists, including Marcel Janco and Richard Huelsenbeck, to produce this interesting study . . . Contents include: Prelims., Cause and Effect, Creative Dada, Dada and Existentialism - Film- Psychology. Plates, Chronology, Dictionary, Bibliography, Index.
