A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Futurism tended towards unfortunate SocioPolitical Ideals or Movements - no? But it would've been impossible for Art to not react to the new sensations of the 20thCentury w/ enthusiasm by somebody.

- I'm always on about Rawk Subcultures being African-American Rhythm & Blues
- plus some European Art Movement :
- Psychedelia =s Surrealism + R&B
- Punk =s DaDA + R&B
...& Mod =s Futurism & R&B (or maybe PopArt)
- Rawk, after all, has been a vehicle for every sort of SocioPolitical affiliation (Punk alone!) - & generally in line w/ Futurist ideas about Youth & even Violence (...shades of previous weeks consideration of Juvenalia & Rebellion complexes...)

Even w/in Futurism - there are distinct Aesthetic groups? Yes?Some are more like Abstraction, or Expressionism - & some are more - urm - PopArtish? Poster-like...or something ?? I thot I liked the lattter, & was a little surprised to find the Former...

Avatar Tue. 10/28/14 9:36am d¢ pät:

if you need reactions to 20th century I think your best bet is the dadaists... the pro-war bullshit is what turned me off the futurists.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Tue. 10/28/14 9:39am adrian in mpls:

@dc pat - i feel the same way about the futurists. their alignment with fascism was, to put it lightly, highly problematic
Avatar Swag For Life Member Tue. 10/28/14 9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- okay yeah - chickadees got a few they do :

- zactly dc pat ; dAda reacted against the ModernWorld & WWI - & the Futurists got all into it...How that found echoes or parallels in Rawk SubCultures is a problem for my own thesis...

brings up the age-old problem of separating the art from the artist. For example, I really dig Celine. His books to me are in line with what the dadaists were all about. But turns out, he was a Nazi apologist. Jerk.

Shostakovich was sneaky though--his true intentions came out in the string quartets.

@dc pat You wonder how much of the politics comes through in the works. I have been reading a little bit of Heidegger lately. He was brilliant, but a Nazi asshole. You start to wonder how that affects what he was trying to say.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Tue. 10/28/14 9:53am adrian in mpls:

i guess i usually tend to think that one's politics tends to find representation in one's art -- even if it comes out in unconscious ways...

@dc pat - i see what yr saying. and people's politics are riddled with contradictions, change with time, etc. and i haven't read enough celine to know how his views on race, colonialism and anti-semitism affect his work.
Avatar Tue. 10/28/14 10:06am d¢ pät:

that's part of it: changing views. maybe you could find some hints of his political views in his work but I, for one, was surprised that some one who was apparently so appalled at how human nature manifested itself in modern warfare could possible support fascism.
