Dada • 1924
Tristan Tzara releases his Seven Dada Manifestoes, an anthology of his major Dada speeches and writings. In the preface of a later edition for the book, Tzara writes that the writings do not "pretend to bring solutions to problems that they seem barely to have formulated."
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.
