Collages created by (Lola Dupre) are both intriguing and shocking, causing vague sensations. Her works in the style of Dadaism resemble metamorphoses, showing how, in the process of imaginary destruction, one concept smoothly flows into another, forming a new reality, from which dazzles in the eyes.
Dadaism can be safely called a harbinger of surrealism. In a way, this style is based on irrationality, denial of recognized canons and standards in art, cynicism and unsystematicity. In essence, Dada is an anti-art, in which there are no traditions, no logic, no morality. The essence of this direction was an outright provocation, calling to live one day, denying tomorrow. As a result, in technical terms, the most common form of creativity in the visual arts became collage, which is considered by the Dadaists to be the basis for the transmission of information. More complex and meaningful than ordinary photography, a collage can accommodate many different frames, which makes it unique in its kind, allowing you to reveal a certain essence, consisting of contradictions and illusions.
It takes a lot of time and effort to create one such work, because each of them is created by hand using scissors, glue and several dozen photographs, which, thanks to painstaking work, coming together, form an "explosive" picture. As a source material for his collages, Dupre uses photographs of celebrities or images of paintings found on the Internet.
“The Art of Destruction” is another article continuing the topic of Dadaism. In this series of works, even vandalism can be beautiful if it is done, so to speak, with a soul.
