Considering in particular the significance of Loy's unpublished works--among them, "Brontolovido," "Esau Penfold," and "Goy Israels"--in relation to Loy's biography and to the questions of ethnicity in Loy's writings, this article will begin with a brief discussion of Loy's family background and her physical and intellectual love affairs with the Futurists Filippo Tommaso Marinetti and Giovanni Papini. This newness for many avant-gardists--say, the politically very different Mayakovsky and the Russian Futurists and Marinetti and the Italian Futurists (and much of the early William Carlos Williams, for that matter)--involved some vision of modernity which required the wholesale abandonment or even destruction of existing culture. Critic, philosopher, designer, painter, and poet, the founder of the-Circle and the Square group was the friend and champion of such artists as Mondrain, Larionov, Delaunay, and Marinetti before going on to become an important historian of abstraction. |
