Began in neutral Switzerland in WWI
Also big in Paris.
Reached its peak between 1916 – 1924
“Anti – Art”
A movement against rigidity of society and art, and the barbarity of war – the public didn’t deserve art after the war.
Dadaism
![Page 5: Chapter 28 – Art, Architecture, and Media. French Monastery: Before & After.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050909/5697c0021a28abf838cc2cb3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Characteristics of Dada Art
Nonsensical drawings
Pastel and faded colors
Used collages and layers – to confuse the “unworthy beholder.”
“The beginnings of surrealism” – many Dada artists went on to become members of the Surrealist movement.
Subjects sometimes mundane, called art as irony. (e.g.– bicycle wheel, flyer.)

SurrealismThe “art of dreams”: disconnection
from reality
Divided into two groups based on different interpretations of Freud and Jung – the Automatists and the Veristic Surrealists.
Automatists - suppress conscious in order to free the subconscious, inspired by more “Dadaist” ideals, shouldn’t be overly analyzed.
Veristic Surrealists - follow the images of the subconscious so they can be interpreted; art is a way to freeze ideas of the subconscious.

SurrealismLead by Andre Brenton, a French doctor who had served in the trenches during WWI.
Subject matter was varied: – some pieces show a
complete dislocation from any sort of literal “reality” (for example, Max Ernst’s works)
-- other pieces show “normal” situations with a spark of absurdity (for example, Rene Magritte's works.)
Bright colors among sometimes dull backgrounds.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GFkN4deuZU (Destino)

Characteristics of BauhausA lack of recognizable objects – wanted
to find the true meaning of art through disassembling it.
Clean lines, geometric shapes layered.
In architecture: clean, functional.
