Duchamp, Katherine Dreier and Man Ray open the Société Anonyme. The inaugural exhibition at the Société's headquarters features works by Picabia, Man Ray, Ribemont-Dessaignes and Duchamp. In November, the Société hosts a solo exhibition by Kurt Schwitters.

An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South? Experimentation, Radicalism and Resistance (2009–2010) at the Iziko National Gallery, which proposed connections between art production in South Africa and abroad against the social and political contexts that framed them. A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
