The Dadaist Manifestos

Hugo Ball recited the first Dada manifesto at a cabaret on July 14, 1916. Dada is the groundwork to abstract art and sound poetry, a starting point for performance art, a prelude to postmodernism, an influence on pop art, a celebration of antiart to be later embraced for anarcho-political uses in the 1960s and the movement that lay the foundation for Surrealism.
