Hello @agmoore. Nice to see your publication. The information you offer and the links are very good (in Venezuela, colloquially we would say "brutal"!)
Muelli also made a collage inspired by surrealism. They seem to agree, hahahaha.
I prefer surrealism. Dadaism I almost don't understand it as art or as an artistic movement. I must study art more.
I think the idea of walking trees is very good. Many collages focused on those trees. I eliminated them! A big salute
Hello @marcybetancourt,
Thank you for liking my walking trees. When I make a collage sometimes it's like writing a story...the characters have personalities :)
I just left a comment on your blog. Yes you did take the picture in a completely different direction...but how original! Your whole piece has personality :))
As for Dadaism--I don't think you're supposed to understand it. It's anti-art. It's anti-artifice. Anti-pretense. It's a generation fed up with the mess their leaders made. It's a kind of cultural anarchism. Nothing to study. Surrealism I think has endured because it's more than pure rebellion. It's a statement, a view of 'reality'. And don't we all sometimes feel that reality is amorphous?
Sorry if I went on too long. I feel very comfortable in surrealism, but not so much in Dadaism--chaos doesn't suit me.
I wish you good luck tonight. Somehow your jovial, light-hearted design still manages to have a classic look. :)
That's my point.
Rebellion vs. Anarchy. I prefer artistic rebellion
But art is free and there must be many paths. Discover, innovate, recombine eras... everything is possible!
