Creating Random Words

School Groups
Middle School

Face-to-Face

How do you think you would feel about reading words randomly brought together? Dadaists had the goal of subverting traditional values and creating a brand-new approach to art. In this word-play workshop, we first choose an object from our backpack, and then we use the first letter of the object’s name to create a new word. We’lldivide into groups and quickly say the very first word that comes to mind. The last person in the group says their word out loud and will make a special noise to alert others that the game is finished. Through this workshop, we learn about Dadaist word games, improve our Turkish language skills and concentration, and learn how to create new words and keep rhythm.

Portrait of Martín Zapater (1797)

Martín Zapater y Clavería, born in Zaragoza on November 12th 1747, came from a family of modest merchants and was taken in to live with a well-to-do aunt, Juana Faguás, and her daughter, Joaquina de Alduy. He studied with Goya in the Escuelas Pías school in Zaragoza from 1752 to 1757 and a friendship arose between them which was to last until the death of Zapater in 1803.
