Description
Dada: A History of the Revolutionary Art Movement. This absorbing eyewitness narrative records and traces the history of Dada from its inception in wartime Zurich to its collapse in Paris in the 1920s, when many of its members joined the Surrealist movement. Hans Richter's unique document is enlivened by extensive use of Dada documents, illustrations, and texts by fellow Dadaists. To celebrate one hundred years of Dada, this book features a new introduction telling the story of how it came about and an extended commentary that identifies Richter's sources and brings the study up-to-date for a new generation of readers. With its extensive use of primary materials, this book provides a fascinating insight into the development and legacy of one of the most radical art movements of the 20th century. First published in an expanded centenary edition, Dada is a valuable resource for anyone interested in modern art history.
