= = =Dadaism=

[|Dadaism], often known simply as Dada or even "anti-art," is a movement that seeks to reject previously established rules and accepted styles of art, literature, and society. In literature, the movement applies mostly to poetry. By utilizing irrational concepts, Dada overturns previous conceptions and accepted beliefs. Ironically, the lack of meaning in Dada works has turned the movement into an art and literary form. The nonsense that comprises Dada appeals to each viewer individually, and any meaning derived from the works are unique to the viewer, not determined by the creator of the work.
