"Craccae" (1928) by French artist Francis Picabia (1879-1953) exemplifies the artist's Dadaist style. The painting's fragmented composition features a nude male figure, a woman in a white dress, and a swirling mass of abstract forms, including eyes and swirling lines. The subject matter and abstract elements reflect Dada's rejection of traditional art and embrace of absurdity and the illogical. This work, currently in a private collection, captures the provocative and anti-establishment spirit of the movement.
