691, NEW DADA. New Art for a New Civilization

The art world has waited over 90 years for a London DaDa expression. By the early 1920s DaDa had its Paris, Zurich, Hanover, Berlin and New York centres but no London movement. LONDON DADA is the 21st C. cyberspace resurrection of the lost link in DaDa. DADA, that cutting-edge scourge of the establishment has re-surfaced and lives again though us, the New Dadaists. Radical free-thinking artists are invited to use their talents in an exciting new art movement -a cyber art and peaceful direct action protest-crusade against corrupt and sterile modern society value systems, including the hi-jacking of art itself by a tawdry creativity-stifling nepotistic Oxbridge arts and media snob club clique-establishment. Our aim is to incubate a New Civilization based on sane, compassionate and spiritual principles. We are currently holding out our threadbare cap for a New Dada champion, a wealthy discerning philanthropist to invest in the dedicated London Dada art gallery in Whitechapel.... someone who recognizes today's art and media as creatively bankrupt, stagnant and geared towards profiting the privileged establishment few... and who feels passionately about an art regeneration based on radical new principles. * * * * * Artists!

  The Warhol Foundation are not best pleased with this work I was informed in no uncertain terms in '06, ABE... but I think maybe old Andy would have tipped his hat to it with a wry smile.
  
  Interestingly enough, the grandfather of DadA/Surrealism, Marcel Duchamp had chiseled into a sector of his own marble memorial...

  Now THAT's crystal clear dAdA heh !

Unsure of the desire...beyond the ownership and the material gain..

Ownership should possess desire..Yet I know that is such a naive world in which to live.
