    "Vanessa R. Schwartz engagingly presents the jet plane's power to define a new age at a critical moment in the mid-20th century, arguing that the craft's speed and smooth ride allowed people to imagine themselves living in the future. Exploring realms as diverse as airport architecture, theme park design, film, and photography, Schwartz argues that the jet created an aesthetic that circulated on the ground below. Visual and media culture, including Eero Saarinen's airports, David Bailey's photographs of the jet set, and Ernst Haas's experiments in color photojournalism glamorized the imagery of motion. Drawing on unprecedented access to the archives of The Walt Disney Studios, Schwartz also examines the period's most successful example of fluid motion meeting media culture: Disneyland. The park's dedication to "people-moving" defined Walt Disney's vision, shaping the very identity of the place. The jet age aesthetic laid the groundwork for our contemporary media culture, in which motion is so fluid that we can surf the internet while going nowhere at all." -- Dust jacket

    "A critical narrative of how gender norms and the modernist movement shaped one another in the early 20th century, using vivid case studies"--Provided by publisher "Gendering Modernism offers a critical reappraisal of the modernist movement, asking how gender norms of the time shaped the rebellion of the self-avowed modernists and examining the impact of radical gender reformers on modernism. Focusing primarily on the connections between North American and European modernists, Maria Bucur explains why it is imperative that we consider the gender angles of modernism as a way to understand the legacies of the movement. She provides an overview of the scholarship on modernism and an analysis of how definitions of modernism have evolved with that scholarship. Interweaving vivid case studies from before the Great War to the interwar period--looking at individual modernists from Ibsen to Picasso, Hannah Höch to Josephine Baker--she covers various fields such as art, literature, theatre and film, whilst also demonstrating how modernism manifested itself in the major social-political and cultural shifts of the 20th century, including suffragist feminism, psychology, sexology, eugenics, nudism, anarchism, communism and fascism. This is a fresh and wide-ranging investigation of modernism which expands our definition of the movement, integrating gender analysis and thereby opening up new lines of enquiry. Written in a lively and accessible style, Gendering Modernism is a crucial intervention into the literature which should be read by all students and scholars of the modernist movement as well 20th-century history and gender studies more broadly"--Provided by publisher

    Publisher:  Oxford University Press, New York, NY

    "What does a black burlesque star have to do with some of the most enduring and passionate ideas in modern aesthetic theory? Josephine Baker emerges in this untold story as a principal figure in the drama behind the making of Euro-American Modernism. Instead of seeing her nude performances as a Primitivist given, Cheng argues that Baker's skin was central to debates about and desire for "pure surface" that crystalized at the convergence of modern art, architecture, machinery, and philosophy. Taking the reader across the Atlantic - through real stages and imagined houses; banana plantations and ocean lines; metallic bodies and radiant cities-this study tracks the ardent and protean conversa-tion between the making of a Modernist style and the staging of a new black visuality. In this account, Baker and the Modernists known to have adored and objectified her in fact share a common dream: the fantasy of remaking and wearing the skin of the other"--

    Durant deux décennies (1952-1972), l'IS et les groupes d'avant-garde dont elle est issue (Internationale lettriste, MIBI), expérimentèrent l'extension du domaine de la pratique artistique pour qu'elle puisse modifier la vie quotidienne (construction de situations émouvantes), au-delà de la séparation en champs pratiques, disciplinaires ou épistémologiques distincts. Actifs dans différents pays, ils ont critiqué dans leurs nombreuses publications et manifestations l'institutionnalisation de l'art et soutenu toute forme de lutte et de résistance à l'emprise idéologique et sensible du « spectacle » sur les modes de vie et les imaginaires des sociétés capitalistes de l'après-guerre, marquées par les guerres de décolonisation et l'instauration de la société de consommation et de la cybernétique. Leurs projets et réalisations artistiques sont répertoriés, reconstitués, historicisés et analysés dans la perspective de la « construction intégrale du cadre de la vie » dont parle l'IS au moment de sa fondation, et ce toujours en lien avec leurs célèbres positionnements critiques vis-à-vis de l'art, la culture et la politique de leur époque. Expériences et récits d'expérience du terrain urbain, cartes, manifestes, enregistrements magnétiques, émissions radiophoniques, films, collages, peintures, maquettes, ambiances, situations, actions de critique institutionnelle, détournements, sont étudiés comme autant de mises en situation du langage, des corps et des décors humains en vue de la production collective de formes de vie « libres ».
