Dada or Dadaism is an art movement that happened in the 20th century and was a controversial movement. It is also a movement in literature based on deliberate irrationality and negation of traditional artistic values. It raises an argument because it is considered to go against what art actually is. The father of this movement was Duchamp by making "art" from gluing a wheel to a table. The movement arose after World War I. It included ideals based of Cubism, Expressionism, and Constructivism and its output was very diverse from anything to performance art, poetry, photography, sculpting, and painting. The main focus of the artists during this time period was not on crafting aesthetically pleasing objects but instead crafting objects that raised difficult questions about society, the role of the artist, and the purpose of art.
