Dada

I learned a bit about Dada in the History of Graphic Design with Brooke. The concept is very lax. "Whatever happens, happens." Dada, or anti art is nonsensical and it was used as a way to refute the war and turmoil that went on during that time. Brooke said that art happens in cycles. Every phase is created to be the opposite of the last. During the war there were stricter, very planned out pieces, and dada was the opposite. After dada, the art movement that followed was a bit more reserved.
