This deeply researched and carefully conceived volume dismantles the prevailing notion of Dada as a mainly "Western" phenomenon. Building on previous studies of East-Central European Dada, it demonstrates how Dada artists from Bucharest to Prague actively defined, shaped, appropriated, and cannibalized the Modernist canon.
