Abstract (EN)

The emergence of the modern movement, which made an impact in the process from the second half of the 19th century to the second half of the 20th century, formed the basis of many art movements. The Industrial Revolution, the development of industry, the invention of the camera and other technological developments have led to great changes in art. Especially in the 20th century, two world wars affected the world society socioculturally, economically and politically. The developments not only had an impact on the public, but also deeply affected the artists of the period. The opinion that art does not depend only on oil and canvas has become widespread among modern artists. Dada artists involved in this revolution when traditional painting techniques began to change. Dadaists, who handled the art of painting and sculpture in a different way, pioneered the formation of many new art ideas. Another discipline influenced by this rebellion is graphic design. Graphic artists under the influence of Dada philosophy and Dadaist art practices, they have designed banners, posters, campaigns, album and book covers in different artistic styles. Dada has become a tool for artists who want to convey their political and social criticisms to the society. The traces of Dadaist visualization techniques and Dada philosophy can be felt in many graphic works designed. In today's graphic art, the Ready-Made philosophy is used as well as the collage technique, typography and photo manipulation methods identified with Dada.
