What is Dada?

 Many of us find ourselves or others asking "what is Dada?" Is it art? Is it an idea? Is it a style? At the time Dada wasn't art or a style, it was a world view. Dada was basically saying "Fuck you" to the art world and academia. Dada concentrated on anti-war, anti-politics, and anti-bourgeois, they rejected traditional standards and ideas of art. Art isn't just for the rich, and art shouldn't serve as pretty decoration.
