The Janco Dada Museum is located in Ein Hod, Israel. It is a museum that exhibits the work of Marcel Janco as well as art from the Dada movement and contemporary art .
The museum was established in 1983, by a group of Marcel Janco's friends, with the purpose of conserving the works and ideas of the sole Dadaist living in Israel.[1]
Janco, who immigrated to Palestine in 1941, described himself as a romantic. In his eyes, Ein Hod was the perfect location for an artists' village, in the midst of nature, on the site of a deserted village, without electricity, water or roads. [2]
