Taking 1959-1960 as a pivotal cultural and political moment, the
contributors to Breathless Days reframe postwar Western art
history, examining the aesthetic and ideological alliances and
tensions in art throughout Western Europe and the Americas. The
collection provides a heterogeneous account of the intersections of
the fine art world with literature, jazz, film, and theater in New
York, Paris, Milan, Brazil, and Cuba. This reveals the knotty and
multilayered connections among these divergent artistic milieus.
Whether discussing Duchamp's With My Tongue in My Cheek, Brazilian
abstraction, postrevolutionary Cuban art, Jean Tinguely's
self-destroying machines, or Burroughs's Naked Lunch, the
contributors show this brief period to be a key to the cultural and
political development of Western Europe and the Americas during the
Cold War. Contributors. Carla Benzan, Clint Burnham, Jill Carrick,
Eric de Chassey, Mari Dumett, Serge Guilbaut, Luc Lang, Hadrien
Laroche, Aleca Le Blanc, Richard Leeman, Tom McDonough, Regis
Michel, John O'Brian, Kjetil Rodje, Ludovic Tournes, Antonio Eligio
