Hans Richter was one of the founders of the Dadaism. Cubism doesn't allow total abstraction, and allows only a slight deformation, keeping the intentions and the idea clear. ( Eg a portrait or a landscape out of rectangles) If you experience the art, cannot understand a single thing, and some voices in you head begin to whisper "What the..... ? " it's pretty much dadist.
It represents dadaism (check on wikipedia), a cultural movement.
General idea- to show everyone that art does not have to 'mean' anything, have actual purpose or any sense at all, and to point that art shouldn't be based on tradition, culture, public opinion, politics and such. Similiar to futurism.
Looks like Kraftwerk The Robots

I'm pretty sure this is a cubist piece rather than dadaist one.

I remember when pops first took me to the moving pictures building to see this. Truly breathtaking in that old avant-garde way.
