Dada-Jok
The cover of ''Dada-Jok'' from May 1922. ''Dada-Jok'' (Dada No) was a Yugoslav anti-Dada single issue publication published in May 1922 and edited by the Zenitist Branko Ve Poljanski. It was Poljanski's and his brother Ljubomir Micić's response to the Dada movement following their falling out with its representative in Yugoslavia, Dragan Aleksić. Name The word Dada is homophone to the Serbian interjection "da, da" meaning "yes, yes". The word "jok" is a loanword derived from the Turkish yok meaning "no". Contents Although self-mockery was already present in Dadaism, the magazine ''Dada-Jok'' was meant to dismiss the merits of Dada. Through a skillful, reflexive parody of the movement, Poljanski sought to expose Dada's limits as an artistic and spiritual current, proposing Zenitism in its stead. ''Dada-Joks eight-page foldout sheet was littered with arbitrarily boldfaced or capitalized letters, photographs and manifesto-style texts by Poljanski and Ljubomir Micić, as wel ...

Dada
Dada () or Dadaism was an art movement of the European avant-garde in the early 20th century, with early centres in Zürich, Switzerland, at the Cabaret Voltaire (Zurich), Cabaret Voltaire (in 1916). New York Dada began c. 1915, and after 1920 Dada flourished in Paris. Dadaist activities lasted until the mid 1920s. Developed in reaction to World War I, the Dada movement consisted of artists who rejected the logic, reason, and aestheticism of modern capitalist society, instead expressing nonsense, irrationality, and anti-bourgeois protest in their works. The art of the movement spanned visual, literary, and sound media, including collage, sound poetry, cut-up technique, cut-up writing, and sculpture. Dadaist artists expressed their discontent toward violence, war, and nationalism, and maintained political affinities with Radical politics, radical left-wing and far-left politics. There is no consensus on the origin of the movement's name; a common story is that the German artis ...

National Library Of Serbia
The National Library of Serbia ( sr, Народна библиотека Србије, Narodna biblioteka Srbije) is the national library of Serbia, located in the capital city of Belgrade. It is the biggest library, and oldest institution in Serbia, one that was completely destroyed many times over in the last two centuries. History In 1832, the library was established by bookbinder Gligorije Vozarović in his bookstore, and its first collection consisted of gifts of publisher and bookseller Vozarović and other Serbian cultural figures. On 28 February 1832, Dimitrije Davidović sent a letter on the organization of the library to Miloš Obrenović. In November of the same year, Prince Miloš ordered that one copy of each printed book be made available to the library. During World War I, the Library building and collections were damaged by bombing, so the small remaining holdings were moved from Belgrade to Niš and Kragujevac for their protection. Damages, loses and lack of fac ...
