From the rear cover: "Lucy Lippard reconstructs the anarchic history and harsh, vivid spirit of the Dada movement by presenting the prose, poetry, and polemic of the artists themselves and of their poet friends. Articles - several appearing in English for the first time - by Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Richard Hulsenbeck, and many others reflect the political and artistic revolution with which the Dadas confronted the crises in Europe after World War I. This collection provides vivid examples of the Dada influence on the Western world and demonstrates Dada's continuing power to affect the arts of the sixties and seventies.".
