were guided by a common idea . . . .the
differences didnt count. . . . We lived in
Montmartre, we saw each other every day, we
talked. . . . It was a little like being roped
together on a mountain. Georges Braque on

Dada rejects rational thought "Dada" arrived in
almost all major Western cities between 1916 and
1922/3 5 main sites Zurich, Paris, New York,
Berlin, Cologne
  • Revolted by the butchery of the 1914 World War,
    we in Zurich devoted ourselves to the arts.
  • While the guns rumbled in the distance, we sang,
    painted, made collages and wrote poems with all
    our might. We were seeking an art based on
    fundamentals, to cure the madness of the age, and
    a new order of things that would restore the
    balance between heaven and hell.
  • - Jean (Hans) Arp

  • I think the time is rapidly coming when it will
    be possibleto systematize confusion thanks to a
    paranoiac and active process of thought, and so
    assist in discrediting completely the world of
    reality.
