The artistic movement known as __________________ was created in response to the horrors of war (particularly, World War I). This movement also questioned the nature of art (what constitutes a work of legitimate art) and rejected coherent meaning and subject matter in favor for ambiguous or often meaningless works of art.
Dada was born out of negative reaction to the horrors of the First World War. This international movement was begun by a group of artists and poets associated with the Cabaret Voltaire in Zürich.
