Dadaist


Critics say that the dada movement is the worst thing that happened in the history of art; a reviewer of American Art News quoted,"The Dada philosophy is the sickest, most paralyzing and most destructive thing that has ever originated from the brain of man." - which I do not deny entirely, as it is intended to be against the classical, or traditional forms of art. It's intended to be as grotesque as possible to deny art, which in result brought major critique in the art world and of artist who take themselves way too seriously. Their reaction is understandable as they took exact opposite turn from art-they made art look ugly, and offensive instead of aesthetically pleasing.
