DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Luis Buñuel → Spain

His surrealist and absurdist films like 'Un Chien Andalou' and 'L'Age d'Or' embody Dadaist rejection of logic and embrace of irrational imagery and dream logic.

Ray Mendoza → United States

A Dada pioneer himself, his experimental films like 'Emak Bakia' and 'Retour à la Raison' are pure visual anti-art that reject narrative and conventional filmmaking.

Wes Ball → Switzerland

A founding Dada member, his experimental performance films and avant-garde work directly manifested Dadaist principles of chaos, nonsense, and anti-establishment aesthetics on screen.
