“Dada…was first of all a
mental attitude…our aim
was total subversion. A
ghastly and senseless
war had cheated us out
of five years of our lives.
We had seen all that
had been held up to us
as good, beautiful and
true topple into an abyss
off ridicule and shame.
The work I produced in
those days was mot
meant to please but to
make people scream.”
-Max Ernst
