Dada on Trial
Spring 2012
The Barrès affair and the end of a movement
Colby Chamberlain
First, the facts: on Friday, 13 May 1921, members of Dada’s Paris contingent put the author Maurice Barrès on trial. The proceedings took place in the Salle des Sociétés Savantes, which had been rented out for the occasion. André Breton acted as chief magistrate; Théodore Fraenkel and Pierre Deval, associate judges; Georges Ribemont-Dessaignes, the prosecution; Philippe Soupault and Louis Aragon, the defense. They wore matching outfits: white shirts, aprons, and rounded hats with ornamental tufts on their top (scarlet for the judges and prosecution, black for the defense). Their makeshift courtroom consisted of several music lecterns. Following an acte d’accusation written and read aloud by Breton, several witnesses submitted to questioning: Serge Romoff, Tristan Tzara, Giuseppe Ungaretti, Madame Rachilde (Marguerite Valette), Jacques Rigaut, Pierre Drieu la Rochelle, and Benjamin Péret. Though there is no corroborating evidence, a flyer advertising the trial suggests that several other witnesses, culled from within and beyond Dada’s immediate circle, might also have participated: Marguerite Buffet, Renée Duman, Louis de Gonzague Frick, Henri Hertz, Achille Le Roy, Georges Pioch

Lisa Davis
Across New York City’s subway system, transit maps displaying colored-coded train routes help riders visualize their location and guide them to their destination. But at Manhattan’s 68th Street–Hunter College station, a new trio of mosaic murals offers a disorienting exploration of the art of cartography and its authority.
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) Arts and Design commissioned Lisa Corinne Davis, a Brooklyn-based abstract painter and a professor of art and co-MFA director at the Upper East Side college, to create three glass mosaics for the transit stop, inaugurated on January 23. Davis’s “Tempestuous Terrain” (2024), spanning a 29-foot curved wall at one of the station’s entrances, and two adjacent works titled “Liminal Location” (2024) situated in front of an MTA service booth, now fill nearly 370 square feet of the student-traversed station.
The unveiling of the artworks coincides with the completion of a $177 million project to make the station fully accessible.
Davis said the works were translated from her paintings, often resembling mapped spaces, which she describes as concerning “inventive geography” and explorations of race, culture, and history.
Over the years, Davis explained in her MTA artwork prop
