The catalogue to the exhibition - which installs @MoMA/NYC, 6.16.06-9.11.06 - presents the hybrid forms of Dada art, the movement born in the heart of Europe in themidst of WWI, via an examination of city centers where Dada emerged. The works of some forty artists encompass the scope of this illuminating project, spanning the period from circa 1916, when the Cafe Voltaire was founded in Zurich (where Tristian Tzara & Lenin allegedly played chess) to 1926, by which time most of the Dada groups had dispersed or affiliated with subsequent Surrealist groups. Chronicles of events, biblio/bios.
