Tristan Tzara

著者について

Tristan Tzara was a Romanian and French avant-garde poet, essayist, and performance artist, best known as one of the founders of the Dada movement. Born in Romania, he moved to Zurich during World War I, where he became a central figure in the Dadaist movement that sought to reject the logic and reason of modern capitalist society. Tzara’s works often embraced chaos and absurdity, reflecting the disillusionment of the era, and he used innovative techniques such as cut-up poetry and spontaneous performances to create a new form of artistic expression.

His influence extended beyond literature into visual arts and theater, impacting generations of artists and writers. Tzara's writings include manifestos that outline the principles of Dada, as well as poetry that captures the spirit of rebellion against traditional artistic norms. His innovative spirit and commitment to challenging societal conventions have secured his legacy as a pivotal figure in 20th-century art and literature.
