Zürich Dada

Zürich Dada was an influential art movement in the early 20th century that challenged traditional ideas about art and culture. Emerging in 1916 during World War I, it rejected logic, reason, and aesthetic standards in favor of spontaneity, chaos, and irrationality. Artists used unconventional materials, humorous approaches, and abstract forms to criticize societal norms and explore new creative freedom. Zürich Dada aimed to provoke thought and question established values, serving as a catalyst for modern art's development and highlighting the absurdity of contemporary life.
