A Very Short Introduction
Book • 2004
The book examines the iconoclastic and confrontational nature of Dadaism, which emerged in 1916 and ended by the early 1920s, and its successor Surrealism, born in 1924, known for being anti-bourgeois and bizarre.

g.
, Dali), readymades, Freud's influence, attitudes to women, fetishism, primitivism, and the movements' international scope across cities like Zurich, New York, Berlin, Paris, and others.
