What was dada art a reaction to? a. spanish-american war b. world war i c. world war ii d. the start of communism

Dada art was founded during World War I in Zurich, Switzerland. It was a negative reaction to the horrors that war had brought.

Explanation:

Dada is a form of artists' anarchy that came out as a result from disgust and hatred for the social, political and cultural values of that time. It welcomed elements of art, theater, poetry, music, dance and politics with open arms.

Dada was more of a protest movement with an anti-establishment manifesto than the actual art movement.

Their aesthetic was marked by mockery of all the materialistic goods and nationalist attitude.

The movement left its' traces on many cities as well: Paris, New York, Berlin... etc. all of which have resulted in their own kind of groups. The products of this movement are usually satirical and non-sensical in a way. The people from the movement had considered that nationalism has led to a war. Dada was the first art movement ever that put focus on making things ugly, compared to the other movements, where the focus was on crafting aesthetically pleasing pieces.

Their goal was both to help stop the war and to release frustration with the nationalist and middle-class conventions. Dada artists ultimately revolutionized the art-making that would continue to leave marks on the future.
