Francis M. Naumann's New York Dada is the first full-length treatment of an influential avant-garde group that included European modernists Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, Albert Gleizes, and Jean Crotti, as well as American artists Man Ray, Charles Sheeler, Joseph Steller, Charles Demuth, and Beatrice Wood, among others. Capturing the most lunatic antics of this group, as well as their genuine contributions to modern literature, theater, music, and the visual arts, this book chronicles a largely forgotten but highly important moment in the history of America's interaction with European modernism. The text is accompanied by 220 illustrations, including clippings from magazines and newspapers of the period, photographs of early installations of modern art, and pictures of the nightspots, palatial apartments, and cramped studios frequented by the artists.
