Each of the essays in this book ranges between the arts, or between the arts and other cultural manifestations: from writing to painting, photography to architecture, art to the mall, or women's work to autobiography. Such interdisciplinarity collapses artistic compartements to bring a healthy new relevance to a study of an American modernism that is grounded in an adventurous avant-garde culture. The corpus spans modernism in all its states: Gertrude Stein, Frank Lloyd Wright, Alfred Stieglitz, George Gershwin, Ezra Pound, Hart Crane, as well as Djuna Barnes, Robert McAlmon, Elsa von Freitag-Lorinhoven, Randolph Bourne, Margaret Anderson, and Carl Van Vechten.
