A hundred years ago an art movement started as a response to the tragedy of world war one. Dada was a powerful and unusual statement by creatives in desperate times.
We propose a new movement today, we call it "Knowing -The Art of Truth". It attempts to tackle the chaos and turmoil we face these days. Where we are on each others throat for silly reasons, while the presence of Artificial Intelligence should unite rather than divide us.
Knowing hosts ritual art events, celebrating the one thing AI is not about to take from us: Spiritual Knowing.
1916
Dada
In 1916, one of the most influential art movements of the twentieth century was founded in Switzerland.
It was a creative response to the turmoil of its time.
A new language when nothing made sense any more.
Dada answered to a world that had become absurd.
In 2026 Artificial Intelligence took language, coding and mathematics.
Things won’t stop here. What we call Reasoning/Logic/Science will fall to AI and it will happen very quickly.
So one thing we thought was exclusively human is not any longer.
Yet for thousands of years humans have explored a second route of using consciousness.
- Meditation
- Prayer
- Psychogenic substances
We propose a new art movement in which artists explore how to move in this space.

Knowing
The Art of Truth
A new art movement.
One painting of a human face.
In front of it several humans are sitting in black or white clothing. They have their eyes closed, except for one.
Aside that, the artist who is running the event is free to show her or his own work. Yet it needs to be related to the Knowing theme.
