New Orleans DADA

New Orleans DADA Subkrewe of Krewe Boheme
Established in 2022 If there is art, there can also
be "anti-art". We take up this spirit and have a hell of a lot of fun doing
it.

We proclaim ourselves to be the Krewe of New Orleans DADA, named
after the DADA artistic movement of 1920's Zurich and Paris. According
to legend, the name DADA originated when a German artist slid a knife
into a random dictionary page and selected the word dada (a children’s
name for "hobbyhorse") as the name for the group. Shocked by the
carnage of a world war begun and perpetuated by presumably


reasonable men, DADAists revolted against any notion that logic,
reason, aestheticism, societal norms of taste, classicism, or the
bourgeoise lifestyle can provide any pathway to a better future. Instead, they turned to irrationality, nonsense, arbitrary artistic choices,
and a kind of "I spit in your face" attitude. Our signature throw is the decorated apple snail shell. The apple snail is
an invasive species readily found in the lagoons of city park and almost any other waterway throughout the south.
