Dada Collages

The fourth grade artists start out the year studying the Dada art movement. We learned the Dada artists used realistic objects in an unrealistic way. The fourth grade artists had to use JUXTAPOSITION, SCALE CHANGE and BACK GROUND in their collage creations. We also learned about the Dada artist's radical response to what was happening in Europe in the 1920's. Ask a fourth grader about it!
