Dada Creation

Missing image
Public gatherings............................................
demonstrations
literary passions
artistic creations. 

anti-war
politics, semantics, and early 20th century
antithesis to aesthetics.
Dada had babies.............................
    offspring galore- surrealism, Pop Art, Fluxus, and more.
Dada was not art...........................

Don’t argue with me-
even it’s proponents would wholeheartedly agree!  

It was Anti-Art.
not anti-art art. J
ust anti-ar
t.
Now it's art.  

Nihilistic-
like chance creation,
nothing mankind did  
had a worthwhile foundation.
Tristan Tzara’s
“Dada Manifesto”
hailed as the best
of this nothingness movement...................  
Is the movement still with us?
or carried away...................
on its own chance randomness
to its successful oblivion?

    A piece so simple in which it becomes complex and yet still remain simple......well if you know what Dada art is....LOL
    I for one liked the form of this piece. It was the perfect fit for the subject at hand.

    Wonderfully Done sweetie!

    Very 'all over the place' which definitely gives it some dada-ism. I love the idea, makes me want to delve there myself. I love how you say,

    "Dada was not art...........................

    which exemplifies the roundabout feeling and definition of dada-ism. Very nicely done, I don't think I could have explained it in such a very.......artistic.......way haha.

    Wow...this piece is utterly creative! I have no clue what dada art is but I'm sure if I had that knowledge I could comment on this better . But very nice work here. Different from anything I've ever seen and nicely put together. I give it two thumbs up!

    Quite a display you have set up here. Not sure what dada art is, so cannot comment on that. Good effort,

    Very Nice

    Very very good! I really enjoyed reading this, you really draw the reader in because you don't see things written in a format like this every day. The adjectives that were written with different fonts reminded me of pickett signs for some reason lol I know I'm kind of retarded lol Alright keep up the good work! -Pasion

    Perplexed but definetly not boring.

    Okay I found this at first puzzling but you did much better than I could have. If this is not what someone is looking for then that is the case but then this piece becomes intriguing enough to just read it through and see where it is going.

    I think Wbiro you have expressed Dada art movement from a very broad angle. I liked the adventurism in this post, though some of the part may appear to be there just for the sake of it, but then they have been put as bluntly or as artistically as it should. But then there are differenences between surrealists and dadaists, there may be some people who may argue. Let me take a back seat and learn more from arguments.

    sorry but this isn't quite what I'm looking for -- I want something that reflects the philosophy of dadaists -- the poem itself can be about anything, except dadaists/dada art/etc.

    If you want to try again, that would be wicked otherwise, I'm afraid I can't judge this as part of the contest as it does not follow the requirements
