Das Kunsthaus Zürich macht auf Sammlungen online über 400 DADA-Dokumente zugänglich (via artnet.com):

“At the tail end of the centennial of the Dada movement, Kunsthaus Zürich has finished digitizing its collection of over 400 original pieces of Dada ephemera. The entire assortment of works on paper, photographs, letters, books, magazines, flyers, and manuscripts is now available—and thankfully, easily searchable—online. (…)

So a digitization team, led by Kunsthaus Zürich curator Cathérine Hug, library director Thomas Rosemann, Dada expert Raimund Meyer, and restorer Jean Rosston, worked with the Digitization Center of the Zentralbibliothek Zürich to make the documents available to a larger audience. (…)

Peruse the online archive at the museum’s website, Dada Digital. It features an optimized search function that allows users to search the full text of the original documents, with TIFF files of the color scans available for download.”
