Marcel Duchamp and
the Readymade
·
Discuss Duchamp’s notion of “Readymades”. What are they?
Mass-produced objects isolated from their functional context.

How do they change your expectations about what
art can be?
In my opinion, artwork would be a painting, sculpture, photograph, drawing, etc., but now, artwork can be any object created by man

Chance Creations:
Collage, Photomontage, and Assemblage

Dada artists turned to non-art making
strategies…

did they embrace?
chance accident
o Why
did they take this approach?
It was their way of protest, showing the violent world they lived in

Artist
Collaboration

What is the value of art made by Dadaists?
The value doesn't lay in the artwork itself, but in the act of collaborating with others to create new visions
Word Play

How and why did Dada artists work with words?
sought to undermine the fundamental structure of rational, ordered society. They turned words and letters into abstract forms and stripping forms
