During the years before his death in 1918 Apollinaire's reputation
as poet and artistic animateur approached legendary proportions.
This book is the first to present an extensive reassessment of
Apollinaire's role in the promotion of themes and iconography
amongst his painter friends. Detailed analysis of the poetic
subject matter of selected works of Dufy, Delaunay, de Chirico,
Laurencin, Marcoussis, Metzinger, Picabia and Picasso is used to
reconstruct the responses of these artists to Apollinaire's
artistic and aesthetic proclivities. Drawing attention to the
poet's immersion in the art and iconography of the French
late-Renaissance and the seventeenth century, Adrian Hicken shows
that the study of the permeation of Apollinairean and Orphic
imagery in the work of artists with very different personalities
presents a fascinating and pivotal episode in the history of
Parisian modernism.
