The 1913 Armory Show

This is a segment of my documentary-in-progress titled, "Random Acts of Beauty: The Story of Dada." The 1913 Armory show in New York introduced Americans to European modern art, and boy was it a shocker! In terms of Dada, the Armory Show introduces us to two artists who figure prominently in the Dada Movement; Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia.

The one thing I like most are avant garde paintings.

Sorry you feel that way, but as mentioned above, this is only a part of a documentary on Dada (2hr); and in that respect, I think i gave it an appropriate amount of time. It's relevance to my documentary lies in the fact that it introduced Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia (major Dada figures) to the viewers.
