Neo-Dada
	International, 1950s The term Neo-Dada, first popularized in a group of articles by Barbara Rose in the early 1960s, has been applied to a wide variety of artistic works, including the pre-Pop Combines and assemblages of Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns, Happenings [more], Fluxus [more], Pop art [more], Junk art, and Nouveau Réalisme, as well as other Conceptual and experimental art forms. The unifying element of Neo-Dada art is its reinvestigation of Dada’s irony and its use of found objects and/or banal activities as instruments of social and aesthetic critique.
