Anachrosaur 1 – The Queen’s Christmas Message to the nation and the Commonwealth.
c. Art Axis 2011
Ancillary work; Anachrosaur II ( Royal Begging Bowl ( to scale) )
Long time no hear from the elusive Mr AA, but he surfaces here with a new Dada series beckoning, where the ” Dada Anachrosaur” { a new Anachronism / Dinosaur derived Dadaism ) poses in front of various archetypal British people and institutions; calling time on a weary, dreary, drab, dismal and often terminally corrupt and rigged old set-up ( still, God love the Queen & her doubtless well-meaning heart ) ;paving the way for the fresh stART in the arts and media – and in society in general – that the New Dadaists believe is inexorably destined for this downtrodden yet potentially great-again nation.

LONDON DADA 
many smiles at the queen connection. However, common people do relate to such institutions. How do we wean them away, without putting them off from the start be challenging long-held associations is a challenge. For example in Libya, I see many common people associate themselves with the King and Old Monarchy after the fall of the terrible dictatorial regime of Gaddafi. Is it an anachronism? Or is it just the way common people think. How does one work in society through these beliefs without putting people off?

Thanks for the comment. I’m not sure it’s “weaning them away” from anything that will cause the masses to change their traditional adherences to institutional falsehoods… rather than them beginning to “see through” them, each for themselves.
A sage once said;
“Don’t come to the truth by trying to find it, but by seeing (through) what it is not”
For the truth, we believe, already pre-exists at the core and as the core of each one.
So uncovering this truth is gradually achieved by “seeing through” what is false.
I think that’s what the new Dada is trying to achieve… to prompt a beginning of spiritual transparency in society – and having some fun and laughter too, along the way.
Hopefully, despite perhaps an immediate negative reaction from diehard UK Monarchists who see this work ( Anachrosaur ), their subconscious will nevertheless still register and process it as to whether it tallies or matches with their inner truth.
.. and so on, for each person.
This, traditionally, has been a very slow peeling away process, but something has happened within humans in the past 50 years that seems to be on an accellerating roll, where more and more young people have been somehow able to shed their personal ignorance much faster and seem to have this “see-thru” mechanism already built in.
Genuine sensitive artists and individuals with a strong conscience and protest spirit help in this process by providing sparks.
May God bless that Tunisian fruit seller.
