Dadaism

Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
About this episode

In the middle of the first world war, a group of artists, poets, and philosophers created an artistic and intellectual movement in response to the war. 

While the movement itself didn’t last very long, its legacy of it laid the foundation for modern art in the 20th century, and can still be seen in modern art today.

Learn more about Dadaism, what it was, and its legacy on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
