The artwork titled “Illustration for Tristan Tzara’s ‘Vingt-cinq poèmes'” was created by Jean Arp in 1918. Belonging to the Dada art movement, this piece serves as an illustration for the literary work by Tristan Tzara and falls within the genre of illustration.
The artwork exhibits a non-representational form, typical of the Dada movement, which sought to reject traditional aesthetics and embrace the absurd. The black and white composition features an irregular, organic shape filled with abstract, fluid lines that create a sense of movement and spontaneity. The visual simplicity yet enigmatic nature of the piece complements the avant-garde nature of Tzara’s poems, embodying the spirit of artistic rebellion and innovation that characterizes Dada.
