It is an art of movement.
It involved visual arts, literature, poetry, art manifestoes, art theory, theatre, graphic design and anti war arts.
Examples:
Hannah Hoch - Cut with the Kitchen Knife Through the First Epoch of the Weimar Beer-Belly Culture, 1919.
The piece on the right by Hannah Hoch epitomizes the Dada attitude towards war: That it is chaos. That the world has gone mad. That war itself is craziness incarnate destroying humanity.

Francis Picabia - The Dada Movement
The dada artists claimed, their movement was a noisy alarm that woke modern art from its slumber, then this drawing reveals how the alarm was sounded. His diagram of the wiring of a dada alarm clock historically plots the current of modern art, beginning with the 19th-century French portrait painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and continuing through to 391, Picabia’s own dada magazine.
