International in scope and diverse in artistic output, both Dada and Surrealism were artistic, literary and intellectual movements of the early 20th century that were instrumental in defining Modernism. The Dada movement, launched in 1916 in Zurich by poets and artists such as Tristan Tzara and Hans Arp, was a direct reaction to the slaughter, propaganda and inanity of World War I.
After the war, many of the artists who had participated in the Dada movement began to practice in a Surrealist mode. Surrealism was officially inaugurated in 1924 when the writer André Breton published the Manifesto of Surrealism. Similar to Dada, Surrealism was characterized by a profound disillusionment with and condemnation of the Western emphasis on logic and reason.

Dada and Surrealism: Europe After the Rain documentary (1978) 1951pm 14.8.23 the only point in history which makes sense and after wards...? whether due to it or in spite of it - the rise and fall of western civilization....
The real dada are the subtitles made by youtube, when someone starts talking german
Raoul Hausmann:
"When language becomes petrified in the academies, ravaged and made barren by journalism, its true spirit takes refuge amongst children, and mad poets!"
5:27 Lesbian Sardines - what a great name for a punk band.
me and my friends fr
I truly hope that a lesbian punk band uses that name, it would be so iconic.
My baby just said it’s first word
It said “dada”
So I google it to see what the hell it was talking about
Holy shit it’s smart
In my lecture class, students were understandably confused about Dadaism, as they had exposed only to mainstream commercial films, i.e., Hollywood. But they quite enjoyed composing Dadaist poetry, with arbitrarily chosen words.
This documentary which I saw in about 1987; when I had been painting for only 4 years, still impresses me. Now seeing it 34 years later; it still inspires me. Maybe more, because of the parallels with our present situation in history ,which it exposes clearly.
I'm curious to know what do you mean by when you say "our present situation?"
I don’t remember the western world being in a huge world war that feels like an apocalypse- which is what the Dadaists and Surrealists were reacting to, so created “anti art.”
But if you want to destroy the current art world because, I dunno, climate change or something, you can always write a manifesto against conceptual art, which has become very academic and stale
@@goodgrief888 There's a gem in there....
I watch this over and over. It is beyond describing in the language of today. My soul is fed, dark and light, light and dark. The great souls who painted and could think. Infinite thanks for this sublime documentary.
Yes! We all agree that Biden and Democrats are the ruin of this country!
Florid, gushing grandiose prose, at odds with the subject.
"Breton meets one soldier who insists that the war is a sham, that the bullets are only dummies, that the wounds are only makeup, and that the dead are taken from hospitals and distributed at night across the phony battlefield." This sounds eerily familiar.
“False flag”
Alex Jones infowars
From the viewpoint of the Empires, the soldier was absolutely correct. It's just a game to them because they aren't the ones who suffer
Except there was as much propaganda and lies from both sides this time, the media frequently published lies, 'scientists' massaged data, huge anti lockdown marches in London censored by the BBC... So really, not a great comparison. All this happened to dissenters under communist regimes too... Mass formation and groupthink led to a reaction, the reaction was the rise of conspiracy theories, but even moderate critical voices were censored.
Doesn't it just....
What impresses me more about dada is the idea that somewhat is easier to judge art as senseless and absurd than to judge war as such.
Max Ernst has always been my favorite artist. He articulates his feelings very well.

I always loved surrealism and dada ever since I first discovered those art forms during my High School years. Since then I've always had a fascination with weird and fantastic paintings and sculptures and I can never get enough of it!
...so you were in high school during 20's and 30's...10 years is a long time for high school...what😐
That’s most probably because the Obvious insults you with it’s vulgarity. If that’s the case, what else is left than surrealism?
I always thought banal rhymed with anal. The lights are on, but the circus is still in town.
@@oneleggoalie who said they were in high school during those years? high school in which country? In the UK it's from 11-16 for GCSEs and then continues 16-18 usually in the same school for A levels.
@@butterflymoon6368 ...sarcasm is always lost 😐
As one very excellent teacher once told me: „there is a very narrow margin between ingenuity and total idiocy“
How have I never heard of Dada?!!!
I swear this is like watching a Monty Python.. except that it really is a documentary!?!! Mind blown. I love it. Thank you so much for sharing
That was excellent. Beautiful tone to the documentary and a great deal of time to absorbing the work and ideas. I miss documentaries with this structure. Keep up the good work.
TS Hart yes. They don’t make these like this anymore...
I can't watch new documentaries because they lack artistry, which should be the very first priority of art documentaries.
Its 1978. Nuff said
It's excellent, but i think this th-cam.com/video/QtmJJ4ySfEY/w-d-xo.html has something for surr
This was really a great documentary. I've seen other videos about Dada and Surrealism but none of them come close to this one to give one a sense of what these movements were about or what simulated them. Thanks for uploading.
Dada revival for the 21st century, we fucking need it.
We could call it Bonkerism
It exists Facebook and Instagram look up KoVid DaDa
so fucking ready for it
I'm working on it.
A revival yes but it has never been completely eradicated and it never will
We are truly only empaths, we are beautiful, we are emotion.
This is absolutely priceless ~ thank you so much for the share!!
Dada and Surrealism: Europe After the Rain documentary (1978). Depending on which newsreel you adhered to... Trotdy died or survived the mensgavik purges... He would steal the sweat from your brow then blame you for the stench...
Thanks so much for this - you've helped me to manufacture my own intellect. Or make a start on it at any rate.
I thoroughly enjoyed this documentary.i just let it play out and repeat and repeat.Very informative.
I like the view on Art as doing - because what we do is crucial to all creation in every aspect of our life
Super educational. Thank you.

Thank you for giving the names of the professional actors who played Tzara and Breton in the credits at the end.
Fabulous documentary .. the music is so pleasant as well and fits perfectly. Where can I see more?
Great documentary and love the narratives
Yup - busy shazamming; Bartok, Modern Lovers....excellent stuff!
Dada and Surrealism: Europe After the Rain documentary (1978) 1953pm 14.8.23 old hat in that we know this. which might be a pointer to your own pedagogic activities(?)
Super documentary without the recent mask of apologetic literature . They were brilliant and wise people, bourgeoisie and on the button holes of snails
I condone this channel. This channel is of value to society. I have spoken, therefore so it is.
...fantastic!
Incredible documentary. It manages to make the Dadaists and Surrealists seem little more than infantile and annoying.
We need DADA today!
Awesome documentary am a artist am a big fan of dada.
I really enjoyed this video, and learned a lot. Where do I can read the phrase in 1:11:32? It's really a Breton's idea?
I find it amusing that a song which sampled from this is listed as music from the movie. (42:58 - Fear is the Agent of Violence - Greater Than One) dada reverse temporal cyber royalties ha!
I recognize some of the music, its in "The Shining"
Dada and Surrealism: Europe After the Rain documentary (1978) 2014pm 14.8.23 the young un ie: young Sutcliffe visits the walker art gallery and sees the mona lisa painting encased in a glass box hidden away with the tudor paintings. weird. laughable.... and amazing experience. thank you.
either Penderecki or Ligeti, I get them confused sometimes; Ligeti's music was also in 2001, the monolith scene
I find it extraordinary that that NO documentaries such as this...ever mention the Spanish Pandemic???
why mention boxes when the road is full of jargon
they also don't mention the inclusion of any women in the art movement. at all! clearly missing out on quite alot of information that would inform both contextual and artistic understanding!
This is a treasure 🥹
Dada was such a reaction to the political climate WW1 etc. How did it avoid Britain. It moved about Europe also including America. But Britain seemed to have missed out on the short lived movement.
should that be shop and sheepkeepers
?
money corrodes both the intellect and the soul
Wyndham Lewis and friends launched Vorticism in 1914. Their manifesto, Blast!, had a similar outlook to dada.
Dada came to Britain late in the form and by the name of "punk"
Its very much a question of how we experience life - and how we act choosing freedom between war or love, between the choice of revolution or transformation and how to move from the heartmind balancing freedom and entanglement - as a cantillation of life - life as a journey honoring love of life
that last quote by duchamp...
The more i look at it, the more i realize that dadaism is just virgin-surrealists
A natural characteristic of dada is to draw out sexual aggression.
Take one part of truth and mix it with three parts of caca and you've got DADA! I actually did a water color painting in High School called Time and it won an award in the Florida State Fair. I was, at the time, inspired by Nudes Descending a Staircase. It was the beauty and not the nonsense of art that was inspirational. Those in the DADA movement were not vacuous pseud- intellectuals nor where they anti-esthetic regarding art, they were just simply manipulated and thus ignorant puppets of another Ism. Those who were behind the scene of this movement, I'd dare say, we're as ignorant. If DADA was what you wanted, well then, you've now got it now in 2001!
Really good. But why the medieval music (or reinvented medievalism). There was so much music in and around Dada.
Agreed, music choice is really stupid.
But I think I hear Satie rendered in piano & recorder?
@@ylimeasil what piece is that at 6:10?
I love dada. It's "aren't i a silly goose" art
the audience was extremely dada
Is it full movie or slightly cut? The IMDB info lists original run as 1h28m long and here is 1h21m version. Maybe recompression?
Who is the public that bears the expense? Another crazy statement.
Another crazy statement? - Your statement?
Who is the public that bears the expense? - Is there more than one public? Private individuals, if you're referring to funding.
The working class would reject DADA out of hand. They have no wish o be avante garde.

Anyone know the music playing through 36:00 ???? I know I've heard it somewhere, in a film or something
Bartok, "Music for Strings, percussion and celeste"
A lot of this music appears in the shining
If anyone can please tell me who the artist discussed from 36:30 is, I would be eternally grateful. I'm hearing "Eve Tommie" and cc's say as much, but searching that name yields nothing
Yves Tanguy
Tanguy is a favorite

42:15 - Is this script between Breton and the Communist in any way based on a real dialogue.
It was based on things written by Breton and the CP. Based on material given to me by Robert Short, a historian of surrealism. Mick Gold, writer/director
Duchamp and Ernst have works that can only be found in top art museums today. I wonder what they would think of that?
Does Duchamp work outside of a Gallery? - ostensibly, when not 'framed' by gallery walls, or academia, a urinal is a urinal; a brick is a brick.
If someone started to recite this kind of 'poetry' as presented here, I would ask them to sit down and pull their shit together.
The guy playing Tzara looks like Nikolas Grace who played Anthony Blanche so I expect him to say: Ccchaaarles!😎
that'll be because it IS niko.

@@mikesmith-pj7xz admittedly he's acting more in the style of the sheriff of nottingham here, a part he'd play in 'robin of sherwood' merely a few years on from when this was made.

Where is 42:30 from, please?
Dialogue between Breton and Communist Party based on texts written by Breton and by the CP. Research for this scene was by Robert Short, who was an expert in dada and surrealism at UEA. I turned his research into dramatic dialogue when I wrote & directed this film in 1978.

Lol I think they just wanted to be silly
I think being silly is very important. But people are quite terrified and exhilarated by the silly. If being silly was just as it was why would the public break into the hysterics and the Nazis burn with rage and point and scream?
Being silly and random and strange, making no sense as a habit and artform was an antidote to wild suffering of ww1....
Nowadays anybody with ADHD and autism is dada
17:07 😂😂😂😂😂😂
What's the challenge ? Why even go on ?
ever tried. ever failed. no matter. try again. fail again. fail better. Samuel Beckett
Ab Fab, dada is what it is not, just like the sky that is not heavens but nor is it the earth, since earth wants to be itself
some great/funny works, but they're so pretentious and full of themselves--despite all the talking about losing themselves and playfulness and rejecting all convention, seems they never could really shake the fine art/academia conditioning. too much pompous intellectualism and not enough nonsense.
