Dada, the early 20th-century avant-garde art movement is put under the spotlight, at Musée de l’Orangerie, from October 18th, 2017 until February 19th, 2018.
Originated in reaction to World War I, in Zürich, Switzerland, Dada was so often considered as a form of protest rather than a movement of art. It was led by artists who rejected the aestheticism and values of the bourgeois capitalist society and was mainly popular for rejecting the conventional definitions and techniques of art used at that period.
A selection of the most interesting Dadaist artworks illustrating the artists’ anti-colonialist views is on exhibition at Musée de l’Orangerie, including works by famous art figures like Hanna Höch, Jean Arp, Sophie Taueber-Arp, Tristan Tzara, Marcel Janco, Hugo Ball, Raoul Haussmann, Man Ray and Picabia.
The museum also invites you to discover impressive pieces made by the famous contemporary African artists Athi-Patra Ruga and Otobong Nkanga. So, be there!
