"Nothing new though,I found magazine ads from the 30s that appropriated dada and surrealism. "

remember that the dada movement happed post-WWI w/ artists disillusioned w/ the world (guess a world war would do that), and one of the big developments that came out of the dada movement was to expand on the collage ideas of the cubists (picasso/braque)-cut-ups using distortion and scale juxtapositions from different print sources (ads), etc (hannah hock was instrumental in this, as was max ernst)...there is no doubt that the work they did probably influenced the print media of the day, and hence the ads that were derived from dada/surrealism movement that popped up in the 30's...

personally-i think how inventive, take a new car and make instruments out of it.
