Dada and Surrealism

RE: Dada and Surrealism
Beauty will be convulsive...

These movements present a mindset that cultivated the avant garde experimentation of the early 20th century. Both began as rejections of the status quo orthodoxy. This way of thinking produced some wonderful artwork - Picasso and De Chirico and Matisse, Joyce, Eliot, Josephine Baker, Jellyroll Morton, Bessie Smith, Louis Armstrong..... all spawned from the same stuff. The mindset represents freedom, or at least takes the rules less seriously. Lots of cool works in the subgenres.
