1 World War 1 ( ) Summer of 1914 World War 1 began and involved most of the world's great powers, assembled in two opposing alliances: the Allies against the Central Powers. Approximately 20 million people were killed, making it one of the deadliest conflicts in history. Propaganda posters were used not only as a means of justifying involvement to each countries populace, but also as a means of procuring men, money and resources to sustain the military campaign. Allied Powers: United Kingdom, France, Russian Empire, US, etc Central Powers: Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria + Germany, etc

LT:Edward Kealey, Women of Britain say Go!, 1915. One of the most memorable of the official rectuiting images, two women and a child bravely watch through an open window as the men march away. Meant to encourage women to persuade their husbands to enlist. Perpetuated the myth that men belong out in the fields fightin or protecting and women need to stay home with the children RT: Saville Lumley, “Daddy, What Did YOU Do During the Great War?,” poster, 1914. This poster remained the most potent image of the war years in many peoples mind. Emasculating George Orwell I have often laught d to think of that recruiting poster…and of all the men who must have been lured into the army by just that poster and afterwards despised by their children.

12 Key Terms and Definitions:
Chapter III - DADA Key Terms and Definitions: Dada: Reacting against the carnage of World War I, the Dada movement claimed to be anti-art. Dada writers and artists were concerned with shock, protest, and nonsense. Chance placement and absurd titles characterized their graphic work. (Key Players: Hugo Ball, Tristan Tzara, Hans Arp, Marcel Duchamp, Kurt Schwitters, John Heartfield)

And just as mainstream artists were giving it serious consideration, in the early 1920s, Dada (true to form) dissolved itself. Dada self-destructed when it was in danger of becoming "acceptable". Dada wasn’t fully recognized until the 1960s rediscovered the work of the dada pioneers.

Such an historic meeting was originally arranged just to play chess... But the Dada movement never really came to an end. The Happening and Fluxus movements (Kaprow, Rauschenberg, Paik) around 1960 would be unthinkable without Dadaism as its predecessor. And 1980 saw a new and powerful revival, a need for exactly the types of ideas and applications which Dadaism represented. In the last twenty years, formal and contextual Dadaist influences have been used as important style elements in the design of alphabets, typography and international graphic design. Among the most influential and creative designers whose work would be unthinkable without Dadaism are for example Edward Fella and David Carson of the USA.
