Richter’s Dada: Art and Anti-Art is the inside story of the movement that blew up art itself. As one of Dada’s original provocateurs, Richter chronicles how a generation of disillusioned artists responded to war, nationalism, and reason itself with nonsense, collage, and beautiful chaos. It’s both history and firsthand manifesto — a reminder that destruction can be creation’s first gesture, and laughter can be the loudest protest.
