萨拉内·亚历山德里安在其著作《超现买主义的艺术》一书中说,“达达并非是超越其他诸运动之上的另一个运动。反之,它乃是一个反运动,它不但反对所有学院主义,而且也反对所有扬言要将艺术从它的界限中解放出来的一切前卫主义。达达是一种愤怒的爆发,它在侮辱与滑稽的形式中表现自己。”达达派的活动家、罗马尼亚诗人特里斯唐·查拉把达达解释为“厌烦这个被战争折磨的世界,厌烦令人生腻的教条,厌烦因袭的感情,厌烦卖弄学问,也厌烦那无所事事、而只是反映这个极有限的世界的艺术。“(均引自萨拉内·亚历山德里安:《超现实主义的艺术》,1970年) Sarah Alexandrian, in his book The Art of Surrealism, said: “Dada is not another movement above all other movements, but it is a counter-movement, It not only opposes all academicism but also opposes all the avant-gardeism that threatens to liberate art from its boundaries, an outbreak of anger that manifests itself in an insulting and funny form. ”Dada The activist, Romanian poet Tristan Chala, interpreted Dada as “annoyed by this war-torn world, tired of the greedy dogma, tired of the feelings of his succession, tired of showing off and tired of doing nothing, but only The art that reflects this very limited world. ”(Both quoted from Sarah and Alexandrian,“ The Art of Surrealism, ”1970)
