Dada magazines made Dada what it was: diverse, non-hierarchical,
transnational, and defiant of the most fundamental artistic
conventions. This book, the first of its kind to critically examine
the place of Dada periodicals within the art movement, redefines
the story of Dada by demonstrating the centrality of these
graphically inventive, provocative periodicals: Dada, New York
Dada, Dada Jok, and dozens more that began crossing enemy lines
during World War I. Including magazines from the well-known Dada
cities of New York and Paris, as well as the lesser-known cities of
Zagreb and Bucharest, the book reveals that Dada continued to
inspire art journals well into the 1920s. Anchored in close
material analysis within a historical and theoretical framework,
Dada Magazines models a novel, multifaceted methodology for
assessing many kinds of periodicals. The book traces how the
Dadaists-Marcel Duchamp, Tristan Tzara, Dragan Aleksic, Hannah
Hoech, and many others-compiled, printed, distributed, and
exchanged these publications. At the same time, it recognizes the
journals as active agents that engendered the Dada network, and its
thematic, chronological structure captures the constant exchanges
that took place in this network. With in-depth scrutiny of these
magazines-and 1970s "Dadazines" inspired by them-Dada Magazines is
a vital source in the histories of art and design, periodical
studies, and modernist studies.
