Hobsbawm Artwork Question

1. The Dada of Art History

First, play Tristan Tzara’s Dadaist game for making a Dadaist poem — BUT use the “cut out” phrases from this module’s lessons. Find eight phrases/sentences from our readings or videos — it could be from Hobsbawm, or from a video, or a quote… Type them out on a sheet of paper. Cut them into individual strips. Put them in a bag and shake them up. Pull them out one by one to create a poem in the order they arrive. Photograph your poem and post it. 

2. Reflect on a specific artwork or art movement to something you learned from reading and collectively annotating Hobsbawm

What specific artwork from the module/textbook chapter interests you more after working with Hobsbawm? In what way? Write approximately 150 words sharing your perspective on the artwork, referencing specific quotes or facts from Hobsbawm to explain why you see it a deeper light after doing the reading.

3. Respond to at least 2 peers’ comments

1. What’s it like to read your peer’s Dada art history poem? What does it teach you about dadaism?

2. Respond to their comments on Hobsbawm and a specific artwork Let them know how their comments expanded or changed your own thinking.
