100 years of DADA - part 2: the collages

Keeping in the spirit of DADA (I hope) I created collages from found objects, including an abandoned dictionary, a cigarette packet left to rot in the rain, and things in the bottom and side pockets of my backpack.

Here are the results.


An invitation



The 11-year plan



Soaring spirit



Things to do



For the kids



The path home



Two great traditions



In your words

100 years of DADA - part 1: the envelopes.

2016 (or 2015, depending on your definition) is the centenary of the birth of DADA, an anti-art, anti-bourgeoise, anti-establishment movement.

I attended an exhibit of Noah Purifoy's work titled JUNK DADA. I often use catalogs and promotional material to make my envelopes. This time I grabbed two full museum handouts to create 8 envelopes.

This also includes my final bicycling stamp.
