Dadaism is Dadaism. It is a bourgeois school of literature and art that emerged in Europe at the beginning of the twentieth century. During World War I, it was first produced in Switzerland. In the autumn of 1915, several literary youths in exile in Zurich, Switzerland, including Romanian Tristan Zara, Frenchman Hans Alp and two other Germans, organized a literary group named "Dada" in Voltaire Hotel. In 1919, the "Dada" group was organized in Paris, France, thus forming the Dada school. Dadaism, which comes from the French word "Dada", is a word they accidentally found in the dictionary, meaning ethereal, confused and indifferent; French originally meant "Trojan horse". It takes the name of the baby's initial pronunciation, indicating the pure physiological reaction of the baby to the surrounding things during the period of learning language. It is claimed that writers' literary and artistic creation should, like infants learning English, exclude the interference of thoughts and only express impressions that can be felt by the senses. In the Declaration drafted by Zara, he once defined "Dada" as follows: "Freedom: Dada, Dada' Dada, which is a howl of unbearable pain, is a mixture of various constraints, contradictions, absurd things and illogical things; This is life. "Someone has made a further explanation:" Dada, that is, I can't feel anything, nothing, nothing, nothing. Dadaists take a nihilistic attitude towards everything, and they often express themselves with a famous saying by Pascal: "I don't even want to know that there were others before me. Looking back on the Dadaism Movement, Zara said: "The purpose is to try to prove that poetry is a living force in all kinds of situations, and words are nothing more than accidental sustenance of poetry. It is nothing more than the expression of natural things like poetry. Because we can't find a suitable adjective, we have to call it Dada. "Dadaists' code of action is to destroy everything. They declared that artistic wounds should be like shells. After people are killed, they have to burn their bodies and kill them. Humans should not leave any traces on the earth. They advocate denying everything, destroying everything and overthrowing everything. Therefore, Dadaism is the concrete expression of nihilism in literature. It reflects the depressed psychology and empty mental state of some young people in the West during the First World War. Since the establishment of Dada Group in Paris in 1919, Paris has become the base of this genre, and the literary magazine Literature has become the mouthpiece of Dada. The writers who participated in this genre are Brodon, Aragon, Su Bo, Ai Lvya, picabia and so on. Although Dadaism once attracted people's attention, it was not lasting because of spiritual emptiness. By 1921, some college students in Paris carried a paper figure symbolizing "Dada" and threw it into the Seine to "drown" to show their hatred of Dada. In 1923, the members of the Dadaism school held their last gathering and declared their collapse. Many of its members immediately turned to join the ranks of realistic writers.

The origin of editing this paragraph

There are always different opinions about the origin of the word "Dada". Some people think that this word is meaningless, while others think that it comes from the colloquial phrase "da, da" frequently used by Romanian artists Zara and Gianko, which means "yes, yes" in Romanian. One of the most popular sayings is that in 1916, a group of artists gathered in Zurich to prepare a name for their organization. They casually opened a French-German dictionary and chose a word at will, which was "dada". In French, the word "Dada" means a rocking horse for children to play with. Therefore, this movement was named "Dadaism" to show its randomness, rather than a "literary movement" in the general sense. Dadaism is a literary movement that rose in Zurich during World War I and affected visual arts, literature (mainly poetry), drama and art design. Dadaism is an important school in the development of western literature and art in the 2th century, and it is the product of the subversion and destruction of the old European social and cultural order in the First World War. Dadaism, as a literary movement, didn't last long, but it spread widely, which had an impact on all modernist literary schools in the 2th century. Dadaists' activities include public meetings, demonstrations, publication of art and literature periodicals and so on. Dadaist publications are full of enthusiastic comments and opinions on art, politics and culture. The main features of Dadaism include: pursuing a sober irrational state, rejecting established artistic standards, disillusionment, cynicism, pursuing the realm of unintentional, accidental and random, and so on. The birth of this movement was a protest against the barbaric First World War. Dadaists firmly believe that the values of the middle class gave birth to the First World War, and this kind of values is a rigid and inflexible repressive force, which is not only reflected in art, but also in all aspects of daily life. The Dadaism movement influenced some later literary schools, including surrealism and surf school. Dadaists believe that "Dada" is not an art, but an "anti-art". No matter what the current artistic standards are, Dadaism is tit for tat. Because art and aesthetics are related, Dada simply ignores aesthetics. Traditional works of art usually convey some necessary, suggestive and potential information, while Dada's creation pursues the realm of "meaningless". The interpretation of Dadaism works depends entirely on the viewer's own taste. In addition, art appeals to give people a certain sense, while Dada's works of art give people a certain "violation". Ironically, although Dadaism is so anti-artistic, Dadaism itself is an important school of modernism. As an annotation to art and the world, "Dada" itself becomes an art. Zara, the advocator of Dadaism, defined Dadaism in his manifesto, saying, "This is an unbearable cry of pain, which is the interweaving of various constraints, contradictions, absurd things and illogical things, and this is life." The purpose of Dadaism and the desire for new vision illusion and new content show that they are re-examining the tradition with a critical concept and trying to get rid of the anti-mainstream cultural form. The impulse of Dada's destruction has an important influence on contemporary culture and has become one of the central topics of art in this century.

The purpose of editing this paragraph

Dadaists take a nihilistic attitude towards everything. They often express themselves with a famous saying by Pascal: "I don't even want to know that there were others before me." Looking back on the Dadaism Movement, Zara said: "The purpose is to try to prove that poetry is a living force in all kinds of situations, and words are nothing more than accidental sustenance of poetry. It is nothing more than the expression of the natural thing of poetry, the Dadaist work "Protection Painting"

. Because we can't find a suitable adjective, we have to call it Dada. " Dadaists' code of action is to destroy everything. They declared that artistic wounds should be like shells. After people are killed, they have to burn their bodies and kill them. Humans should not leave any traces on the earth. They advocate denying everything, destroying everything and overthrowing everything. Therefore, Dadaism is the concrete expression of nihilism in literature. It reflects the depressed psychology and empty mental state of some young people in the West during the First World War. Dadaists are anarchists, not socialists. In some cases, they were primitive fascists who adopted bakunin's slogan: Destruction is creation.

in 1916, Hugo Barr, Amy Hannings, Tristan Zara, Hans Arp, Richard Hu Sen Baker, Sophie Tober and other exiled artists in Zurich set up a literary and artistic activity club in the local Voltaire Hotel. They expressed their dislike of war and the values that gave birth to war by discussing artistic topics and performing. On October 6th of the same year, this organization was officially named "Dada". On July 14, 1916, at the first public meeting of this organization, Barr publicly read the so-called "Dadaism Declaration". In 1918, Zara wrote another declaration of Dadaism, which is considered as one of the most important declarations of Dadaism. After that, many artists have made similar declarations. A periodical named Voltaire Hotel is the main achievement in the early stage of this movement. After the hotel closed, Dadaist activities began to move to a new gallery. Soon, Barr left Europe, and Zara began to preach Dadaism. He wrote letters to French and Italian artists and writers, attacking their works fiercely. Soon, Zara became the leader of Dadaism and a veritable strategic commander. Zurich Dada theorists with Zara as the helmsman published a periodical called Dada. This periodical was founded in July 1917, and published five issues in Zurich, and the last two issues in Paris. In 1918, World War I ended. Most Dadaists living in Zurich returned to their own countries, and some of them began to promote Dadaism in other cities.

Berlin

The Dadaism movement in Germany is not as "anti-artistic" as the Dadaism movement in other countries, but has a very significant color of political and social change. Dadaists in Germany are keen on making inflammatory declarations, using the power of propaganda and satire to launch large-scale public demonstrations and political activities. In February 1918, Richard Hu Sen Baker gave his first speech on Dadaism in Berlin, and at the end of the same year, he published a declaration on Dadaism. Hannah Ricarda Huch and George Grotz used Dadaism to express their sympathy for post-war capitalism. During this period, Grotz and john hart Feder invented the technology of "photographic montage". Artists published a series of political journals (all short-lived) and held an international exhibition of Dadaism in 192. There are many contradictions within the Dadaism movement in Berlin. Kurt Schwitters rallied some other artists to break away from the Dadaism organization in Berlin. Schweitzer moved to Hanover, where he developed a more personal Dadaism.

Cologne

In 192, Marx Ernst, Johannes Theodore Baljed and Alp held a controversial exhibition of Dadaism in Cologne. The core view of this exhibition is the nihility of art and anti-middle class values.

new york

During World War I, new york, like Zurich, became a place where a large number of exiled artists and writers lived. Artists marcel duchamp and Frances Picabia, who were exiled from France to the United States, met American artist man ray. In 1916, these three men became the core figures of the American "anti-art" movement. Beatrice Wood, an American artist who studied in France, later joined the group. Artists in new york do not pretend to be "Dadaists", and they have never made any declarations or organized any political activities. However, they bombarded the old art and cultural system through their own publications, including The Blind and new york Dada.
