20TH CENTURY DESIGN

For task 2, we learn about Dadaism concept, where we know it is a art movement that happen after the World War 1, where artists decided to protest the government and rejected the reason and logic. Dadaism also a change in artists where they start to change their artwork from paint and brush media to other media such as collage, photo montage, assemblage and ready made thing.

For me, Dadaism is controversy way of the young artist in that time to directly or abstractly hating government because of the war they created.

The famous artist of Dadaism that I like is Marcel Duchamp. His artwork The Fountains that using urinal place or toilet resemble the project that Aisyah and I doing for Dadaism project. We using 6 things that we collect and put in the box and exchange it around the group, so my group boxes with Jeffry group, where Aisyah and me get, bracelet, seashell, chains, 50 cents coin, oil container that been cut half, bulb, wire, batteries, plastic cup, polystyrene cup, tissue roll, masking tape, and soap.

So using this as references, we creating a sketches of idea on issue that we want to give awareness that happen know. Aisyah and I try to use this thing in the boxes to create topic of the awareness of transgender.  This idea of creating this topic is because of the another side of Marcel Duchamp, that is known as Rrose Selavy.

REFLECTION

In learning Dadaism, I learn about the way artist try to change the way of making art and using art as a provocation or something that create scandalous by the way people change because of war that happen and using something new that did not use brush and painting. Mostly, I think Dadaism is something controversy by making direct and abstract approach.
