Text in French

The Dada movement developped between 1916 and 1922. Right from the beginning, the most radical attitudes appear. The movement immediately triggered a plain conflict with all the existing forms of art,  to all the cultural models that were expressed through these forms of art. But furthermore, no rule, no doctrine was opposed to this big restoration. In his Manifeste dada 1918, Tzara (1896-1963) refuses the theories, the systems and the art that became commerce. 

In 1918, Arp (1886-1966) illustrated the  25 Poems by his friend Tristan Tzara, in the now famous DADA collection in Zurich. Written between 1915 and 1918, first published to 10 copies by the anarchist printer J. Heuberger in Zurich, these are, with those of « Mr. Antipyrine », the first dada poems by Tzara.
