Hans Arp

Hans Arp also known as Jean Arp, was a pioneer of abstract art who added chance and spontaniety to his work along with adding waste materials to the arrangement of his pieces. 

​

Arp's pieces added to the chaos of the dadaists ideals and rejected the expectations of art. The dadaists pieces weren't about beauty but the thought process behind the piece. Concept over aesthetics.
