Neo-Dada is an artistic movement of the 20th century, usually thought to have begun in the 1960s. Artists of this movement derive their conceptual heritage from earlier Dada artists, most importantly Marcel Duchamp. Neo-Dada is exemplified by its use of modern materials, popular imagery, and absurdist contrast. It also patently denies traditional concepts of aesthetics. The leading artists in the Neo-Dada movement are Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns and Jim Dine.
