Abstract

This collection of critical essays explores new approaches to the study of avant-garde literature and art, film and architecture. It offers a theoretical framework that avoids narrowly defined notions of the avant-garde. It takes into account the diversity of artistic aims and directions of the various avant-garde movements and encourages a wide and open exploration of the multifaceted and often contradictory nature of the great variety of avant-gardist innovations. Individual essays concentrate on cubist collage and dadaist photomontage, on abstract painting by members of the Dutch group De Stijl , on verbal chemistry and dadaist poetry and on body art from futurism to surrealism. In addition, the collection wishes to open up the discussion of the avant-garde to a thorough investigation of neo-avant-garde activities in the 1950's and 1960's. For decades the appreciation of neo-avant-garde art and literature, film and architecture suffered from a general and all-inclusive rebuke. This volume is designed to contribute to a breakthrough towards a more competent and more precise investigation of this research field. Contributions include a discussion of Warhol’s multiples as well as Duchamp’s editioned ready-mades, forms of concrete and digital poetry as well as the architectural “Non-Plan”. The main body of the volume is based on presentations and discussions of a three-day research seminar held at the University of Edinburgh in September 2002. The research group formed around the Avant-Garde Project at Edinburgh will continue with its efforts to elaborate a new theory of the avant-garde in the coming years.

Abstract

Paul De Vree (1909-1982) betreedt het domein van de avant-gardekunst op het moment dat hij al een rijkgevulde carrière als dichter en criticus achter de rug heeft. Contacten met de schilder Jef Verheyen en de dichter Henri Chopin zorgen ervoor dat hij zich vanaf het einde van de jaren 50 ontpopt tot een verwoed voorvechter van de nieuwe avant-garde in Vlaanderen. Van dan af staat hij continu in contact met zowat alle belangrijke vertegenwoordigers van de internationale concrete, visuele en sonore poëzie. Daarnaast legt hij zich in de jaren 60 ook toe op het promoten van de radicale beeldende kunst. Met De Vree's archief als sleutelgat op het tijdsgewricht 1960-1980 ontstaat een fascinerend beeld van een internationaal avant-gardenetwerk dat, via actoren als De Vree, ook sporen nalaat in het Belgische kunstlandschap. Het is op deze extreem vruchtbare periode dat 'Neonlicht' zich richt.
