This is the first comprehensive study of bodily images in Dada.
Travelling between the international centres of the movement, from
Zurich to Berlin, Paris to New York, it examines a diverse range of
media, including art, literature, performance, photography and
film. Its overall approach is to confront Dada's bodily images not
as organic unities but as fictions that reflect on the disjunctive,
dehumanised society of war-torn Europe. These fictions occupy an
ambivalent space between the battlefield (in their satirical
exposure of ideology) and the fairground (in their playful
manipulation and joyful renewal of the body). The book features
analyses of works by Max Ernst, Francis Picabia, Hannah Hoech,
Marcel Duchamp and others, and will appeal to scholars and students
of European history, cultural history, art and literature. -- .
