The Museum of Modern Art, ala New York City, is exhibiting an extensive collection of Dada works. Over fifty artists are represented including Marcel Duchamp, Hans Arp, Max Ernst and more.

“This major museum exhibition, which premiered at the National Gallery of Art, is the first in the United States to focus exclusively on Dada, one of the twentieth century’s most influential avant-garde art movements. Responding to the disasters of World War I and to an emerging modern media and machine culture, Dada artists led a creative revolution that profoundly shaped the course of subsequent art.”
