Dadaism

The Dadaism movement was a movement of art that expressed the early idea that the world is without centralized reason, but rather, it is irrational and absurd. 

In 1917, Marcel Duchamp associated with Dadaism created an art piece called "Fountain", which was just a urinal he purchased. At first, it was rejected when he attempted to exhibit it as art, but later, it would be accepted and redeemed as an ingenious and highly influential piece of its time.

In this piece, Duchamp begged the question of what art could be, and whether or not it had to be made by the artist or if it could be merely a re-contextualization or addition to what already existed.
