This book explores the great influence of twentieth-century artists
and art movements on many major writers of the twentieth century.
It focuses in particular on four seminal writers who were strongly
influenced by very different movements: they are Gertrude Stein and
Cubism, William S. Burroughs and Dada, J. G. Ballard and
Surrealism, and Douglas Coupland and Pop Art. For these authors the
presence and influence of these art movements is not limited to a
small cluster of texts, but can be felt much more expansively
across their work, infiltrating all manner of multifarious and
complex dimensions. These authors are all keen to explore new
methods of shifting the signature styles and forms of visual art
into the literary world. Alongside these more overt methods of
artistic transposition, the authors also often demonstrate a deep
philosophical affinity with their chosen movements. This book
uproots and examines these kinds of artistic engagements, and also
explores the authors' own personal connections with the world of
art. For these are all authors not only interested in visual art,
but also intimately connected to the art world. Indeed, some went
on to become renowned artists in their own right, while others were
closely associated with major historical art figures. Above all
however, they are unified by a kindred interest in exploring how
the methods and philosophies of art can be transposed into, and
even challenge the constraints of traditional forms of literature.
