Shock and the Senseless in Dada and Fluxus (Interfaces: Studies in Visual Culture)
- Used Book in Good Condition
In this thought-provoking work, DorothÃ©e Brill examines notions of shock and the senseless in Dada and Fluxus, pairing two distinctly radical art movements that challenged the very notion and purpose of art. Laying out a genealogy of surrealisms, she addresses the senseless in artistic production as a strategy toward shockâ€”generally considered to be characteristic of the historical avant-garde. Examining the changing correlation between the notions of shock and the senseless in their artistic use in prewar Europe and postwar America, Brill arrives at a new understanding of the overstrained and generally pejorative catch phrase of â€œshock for shockâ€™s sake.â€
