Gordon Onslow Ford Voyager and Visionary
Gordon Onslow Ford Voyager and Visionary 11 February – 13 May 2012 The Mint Museum 1 COVER Gordon Onslow Ford, Le Vallee, Switzerland, circa 1938 Photograph by Elisabeth Onslow Ford, courtesy of Lucid Art Foundation FIGURE 1 Sketch for Escape, October 1939 gouache on paper Photograph courtesy of Lucid Art Foundation Gordon Onslow Ford: Voyager and Visionary As a young midshipman in the British Royal Navy, Gordon Onslow Ford (1912-2003) welcomed standing the night watch on deck, where he was charged with determining the ship’s location by using a sextant to take readings from the stars. Although he left the navy, the experience of those nights at sea may well have been the starting point for the voyages he was to make in his painting over a lifetime, at first into a fabricated symbolic realm, and even- tually into the expanding spaces he created on his canvases. The trajectory of Gordon Onslow Ford’s voyages began at his birth- place in Wendover, England and led to the Royal Naval College at Dartmouth and to three years at sea as a junior officer in the Mediterranean and Atlantic fleets of the British Navy. He resigned from the navy in order to study art in Paris, where he became the youngest member of the pre-war Surrealist group. At the start of World War II, he returned to England for active duty. While in London awaiting a naval assignment, he organized a Surrealist exhibition and oversaw the publication of Surrealist poetry and artworks that had been produced the previous summer in France (fig. -

Women Surrealists: Sexuality, Fetish, Femininity and Female Surrealism
WOMEN SURREALISTS: SEXUALITY, FETISH, FEMININITY AND FEMALE SURREALISM BY SABINA DANIELA STENT A Thesis Submitted to THE UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages School of Languages, Cultures, Art History and Music The University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to challenge the patriarchal traditions of Surrealism by examining the topic from the perspective of its women practitioners. Unlike past research, which often focuses on the biographical details of women artists, this thesis provides a case study of a select group of women Surrealists – chosen for the variety of their artistic practice and creativity – based on the close textual analysis of selected works. Specifically, this study will deal with names that are familiar (Lee Miller, Meret Oppenheim, Frida Kahlo), marginal (Elsa Schiaparelli) or simply ignored or dismissed within existing critical analyses (Alice Rahon). The focus of individual chapters will range from photography and sculpture to fashion, alchemy and folklore. By exploring subjects neglected in much orthodox male Surrealist practice, it will become evident that the women artists discussed here created their own form of Surrealism, one that was respectful and loyal to the movement’s founding principles even while it playfully and provocatively transformed them. -

Literatura Y Ciencia En La Composición Minimalista: Hacia Una Teoría Del Azar Controlado Marta Cureses
Literatura y ciencia en la composición minimalista: Hacia una teoría del azar controlado Marta Cureses ACTIO NOVA: REVISTA DE TEORÍA DE LA LITERATURA Y LITERATURA COMPARADA, 3 (2019): 407-438 DOI: https://doi.org/10.15366/actionova2019.3.018 LITERATURA Y CIENCIA EN LA COMPOSICIÓN MINIMALISTA: HACIA UNA TEORÍA DEL AZAR CONTROLADO LITERATURE AND SCIENCE IN MINIMALIST COMPOSITION: LOOKING FOR A THEORY OF CONTROLLED CHANCE. Marta Cureses Universidad de Oviedo ABSTRACT Literature and science are both the fundamental pillars on which we try here to define a theory of controlled chance through musical minimalism and random composition. Literature —prose and poetry— and science mathematics and music are joined by another discipline taking part of the process: architecture, not in a generalist consideration, but from the very concrete approach proposed by Peter Eisenman’s theory of architecture as a text. Key words: literature theory, combinatorics, random music, minimalism, architecture. RESUMEN Literatura y ciencia son los dos pilares fundamentales sobre los que se trata aquí de definir una teoría del azar controlado en la composición minimalista y de signo aleatorio. Junto a la literatura —prosa y poesía— y ciencia matemáticas y música surge otra disciplina que ACTIO NOVA: REVISTA DE TEORÍA DE LA LITERATURA Y LITERATURA COMPARADA.

Comparative Literature, Spring 2008 Colt 480 Dada Surrealism T
1 COMPARATIVE LITERATURE, SPRING 2008 COLT 480 DADA SURREALISM T. AND THURS. 12:30—1:50 T.H.H 121 PROF. GLORA ORENSTEIN OFFICE: T.H.H 174 VOICE MAIL: 740—0100 E-MAIL: [email protected] In this course we will explore the Dada and Surrealist Movements in the arts. We will focus on each movement’s aesthetic philosophy and stylistic and conceptual innovations as they manifested in a variety of artistic media: poetry, film, fiction, theatre, painting, manifestos, happenings, and contemporary Neo-Dada and Neo surrealist literary and visual creations. Concepts and forms such as The Marvelous, Automatic Writing, Objective Chance (synchronicity), Black Humor, the Found Object, The Dream Object, The Exquisite Corpse, The Surrealist Object, The Surrealist Image, The Surrealist Game, The Happpening, The Dream Narrative, Communicating Vessels, Paranoic Critical Creations, Frottage, Surrealist Collage, The One in The Other, Panic Theatre/Ephemeras, and many other artistic techniques will be elucidated as they articulate the “convulsive beauty” of Dada and Surrealist art and writing internationally. The women of Surrealism, their work in art and literature, will be a major focus of the course. There is one important aspect of the course that I would like to stress. Throughout the semester I would like you to search the web and establish an extensive file on either Dadists or Surrealists in a country of your choice. Print out a collection of information on contemporary dada or surrealist artists in your selected country or region, and be prepared to hand in this collection on the last day of class. It will take the form of a Class Presentation and it may be the Field Work component of your final research paper/project. -
Du Cinéma and the Changing Question of Cinephilia and the Avant-Garde (1928-1930)
Jennifer Wild, “‘Are You Afraid of the Cinema?’” AmeriQuests (2015) ‘Are you Afraid of the Cinema?’: Du Cinéma and the Changing Question of Cinephilia and the Avant-Garde (1928-1930) In December 1928, the prolific “editor of the Surrealists,” La Librairie José Corti, launched the deluxe, illustrated journal Du Cinéma: Revue de Critique et de Recherches Cinématographiques.1 Its first issue, indeed its very first page, opened with a questionnaire that asked, “Are you afraid of the cinema?” (Fig. 1, 2) The following paragraphs describing the questionnaire’s logic and critical aims were not penned by the journal’s founding editor in chief, Jean- George Auriol (son of George Auriol, the illustrator, typographer, and managing editor of the fin-de-siècle journal Le Chat Noir); rather, they were composed by André Delons, poet, critic, and member of the Parisian avant-garde group Le Grand Jeu. “This simple question is, by design, of a frankness and a weight made to unsettle you. I warn you that it has a double sense and that the only thing that occupies us is to know which you will choose,” he wrote.2 1. Cover, Du Cinéma, No. 1.

Financially, he was floundering. Amorously, he found himself in dire straits: his marriage with Simone Kahn was over, a love affair UR with Lise Meyer had ended badly, his involvement with Nadja had been tragic and the affair with Suzanne Muzard— introduced as ‘X’ at the end of Nadja— The ‘Golden was not going well. -
The Dismembered Body in Antonin Artaud's Surrealist Plays
CHAPTER TWO THE DISMEMBERED BODY IN ANTONIN ARTAUD’S SURREALIST PLAYS THOMAS CROMBEZ In two of his surrealist plays, Antonin Artaud inserted a scene where human limbs rain down on the stage. The beginning of Le Jet de sang (The Spurt of Blood, 1925) features a young couple pathetically declaring their love for one another, when suddenly a hurricane bursts, two stars collide, and “a series of legs of living flesh fall down, together with feet, hands, heads of hair, masks, colonnades, portals, temples, and distilling flasks”1 (Artaud 1976a, 71). In a later scenario prepared for the Theatre of Cruelty project, La Conquête du Mexique (The Conquest of Mexico, 1933), the volley of human limbs is echoed almost verbatim. Human limbs, cuirasses, heads, and bellies fall down from all levels of the stage set, like a hailstorm that bombards the earth with supernatural explosions.2 (Artaud 1979, 23) These literal and, according to the theatrical conventions of the day, almost unstageable instances of “dismemberment in drama” point to a distinctive characteristic of Artaud’s work. He seemed to strive for a purely mental drama, to be staged for the enjoyment of the mind’s eye. The distinctly appropriative method he employed to write his mental play- texts may be labeled, borrowing an expression from Alfred Jarry studies, as “the systematically wrong style” (Jarry 1972, 1158). This expression has already proven its worth as the most concise term for Jarry’s linguistically grotesque plays, composed of Shakespearean drama, vulgar talk, heraldic language, archaisms, and corny schoolboy humor. The first part of my essay considers why the standard poststructuralist interpretation of Artaud’s œuvre is unable to provide a strictly literal reading of the human body parts that litter the stage. -
Networking Surrealism in the USA. Agents, Artists and the Market
151 Toward a New “Human Consciousness”: The Exhibition “Adventures in Surrealist Painting During the Last Four Years” at the New School for Social Research in New York, March 1941 Caterina Caputo On January 6, 1941, the New School for Social Research Bulletin announced a series of forthcoming surrealist exhibitions and lectures (fig. 68): “Surrealist Painting: An Adventure into Human Consciousness; 4 sessions, alternate Wednesdays. Far more than other modern artists, the Surrea- lists have adventured in tapping the unconscious psychic world. The aim of these lectures is to follow their work as a psychological baro- meter registering the desire and impulses of the community. In a series of exhibitions contemporaneous with the lectures, recently imported original paintings are shown and discussed with a view to discovering underlying ideas and impulses. Drawings on the blackboard are also used, and covered slides of work unavailable for exhibition.”1 From January 22 to March 19, on the third floor of the New School for Social Research at 66 West Twelfth Street in New York City, six exhibitions were held presenting a total of thirty-six surrealist paintings, most of which had been recently brought over from Europe by the British surrealist painter Gordon Onslow Ford,2 who accompanied the shows with four lectures.3 The surrealist events, arranged by surrealists themselves with the help of the New School for Social Research, had 1 New School for Social Research Bulletin, no. 6 (1941), unpaginated. 2 For additional biographical details related to Gordon Onslow Ford, see Harvey L.
