A BIG THANK YOU

FOR ALL WHO PARTICIPATED

 

 

A NADAist Manifesto for Peace:

The views expressed here are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of any of the participants in this event.

In "Dada: Paradox of Art, Paradox of Life" Graham Hunter writes:"...The Dadaists thought that by creating paradoxical art that emulated the unpredictable nature of life they could protest against the misguided rationality of society..." We feel they were sadly mistaken, yet much of contemporary art attempts to emulate DADA, having lost the original meaning and intent and that a true, "clean and sober" strain from the original Pacifist Berlin DADA, is a spiritual anti-art that is in fact an unorthodox Zen Buddhist "NADA"… as such much of the pseudo DADA replication that is entombed in museums Today is metaphysical kitsch at its worst and an insult to the spirit of NADA.
