Dadaism is an avant-garde art movement that emerged in the early 20th century, primarily in Europe, as a reaction against the horrors of World War I and the conventional values of society. It is characterized by a spirit of absurdity, spontaneity, and anti-art, often employing unconventional materials and techniques to challenge traditional aesthetics and cultural norms. Dadaists sought to provoke thought and question the meaning of art, often through nonsensical and chaotic performances, poetry, and visual art. Ultimately, Dadaism laid the groundwork for later movements like Surrealism and conceptual art.
