Berlin Dada

Berlin Dada was an avant-garde art movement that emerged in the early 20th century, around 1918-1923, as a reaction against traditional art, societal norms, and the chaos of World War I. It emphasized experimental, absurd, and provocative forms of expression, challenging conventional aesthetics and values. Artists used collage, photomontage, performance, and unconventional materials to provoke thought and question authority. Berlin Dada sought to dismantle existing cultural and political structures, promoting spontaneity and chaos as a form of artistic and social critique. It played a significant role in the broader Dada movement, focusing on upheaval and anti-establishment sentiments.
