Crisis and the Arts: Dada Zurich, a clown's game from nothingStephen C. Foster During World War I Zurich was a cultural and political showplace. Essays in this volume examine the social, psychological and political atmosphere that made Zurich the centre for revolutionary changes in Europe and around the world. Happenings and performances are discussed in aesthetic, socio-political, and anthropological terms. Other topics covered include Dada's laughter, the establishment and development of Caberet Voltaire, the exhibition and events at the Galerie Dada, and the periodicals that emerged from the Zurich Dada movement. |
