    http://www.firstworldwar.com/bio/wyndhamlewis.htm
    
    Extractions: Updated - Sunday, 21 July, 2002 Percy Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957) served as an official British artist during the First World War in addition to serving as a battery officer. Born in Nova Scotia in 1882 Lewis was educated in England at the renowned Rugby School. Thereafter accepted into Slade School of Art in 1898 Lewis graduated in 1901 and embarked upon a tour of Europe, eventually returning to England in 1909. Lewis established a reputation as a man of parts: aside from his undoubted talent as an artist he published essays, plays and novels, and came to be regarded as a satirist. In 1912 Lewis founded Vorticism, a new literary and artistic movement of sharp angles and bold lines which went out of its way to reject the 'irrelevant' romanticism of the nineteenth century, instead stressing qualities such as violence and energy together with the increasing importance of mechanical machines in the modern world. Supporters of his group included another artist who would serve in an official capacity during wartime, Christopher Nevinson Lewis's First World War service included two years spent on the Western Front as a battery officer from 1916-18. In 1937 he published his wartime memoirs as

He had a hard and aggressive style in both his writing and his painting. His literary works include the novel The Apes of God Time and Western Man Blasting and Bombardiering Through Vorticism, a variant of cubist and Futurist ideas, Lewis opposed the everyday visual real and favoured machinelike forms.

    Extractions: Percy Wyndham Lewis was a novelist, playwright, painter, poet, satirist and critic. He was born in 1882 in Amehurst, Nova Scotia. Although his father was American, his English mother was mainly responsible for his upbringing. He was educated at Rugby School and at the Slade School of Art from 1898 until 1901. After art college, he travelled across Europe and finally settled in Paris for a few years, returning to England in 1908 where he began publishing plays, short stories and novels. In 1914, heavily influenced by the ideas and methods of Marinetti and Futurism as well as their art (see Futurist Figure ), Wyndham Lewis, in association with the poet Ezra Pound, founded the literary and artistic movement that Pound christened Vorticism. Sometimes called the London branch of the Cubo-Futurists, Vorticism was actually British art's independent alternative to Cubism and Futurism. It was, in fact, the first British modern art movement and the only British avant-garde movement to make an original contribution to European Modernism. The group included Charles Nevinson, William Roberts, Alvin Langdon Coburn and the French sculptor Henri Gaudier-Brzeska. Although the Vorticists openly criticised the Italian Futurists for their enthusiastic embrace of modernity, which they deemed credulous, and their emphasis on blurred speed and motion there were strong similarities and common influences and directions. The movement maintained an aggressive challenge to the obsolete Victorian values that were seen to be stifling modern artistic expression.

That Wyndham Lewis posed a "Jewish Question" is well-known, and a good book on his attitudes to Jews would be a good book all round, not only contributing to Lewis studies but helping us to learn more about human behaviour from his particular example. David Ayers' Wyndham Lewis and Western Man , however, is poorly researched, employs cumbersome psychoanalytic concepts with a naivete that is astonishing, and is plagued with serious errors. There is no likelihood that it will be widely influential, though doubtless the waters around Lewis, already turbid with fanaticism, will be made yet muddier, as if that mattered. But because of its inadequacies it has considerable interest as a representative of that intellectual carelessness, and a tendency to sensationalism, which afflicts those who have, as they think, strong moral cases. A case of this kind requires impeccable scholarship in all the fields in which it moves, Lewis, history, psychology and psychoanalysis, before its claims to attention become credible. Ayers is deficient in all of them, and also gives evidence everywhere of what one could charitably call over excitement. One example will be enough. After an extended comparison of Lewis's discussion of Georges Sorel in

Lewis found the strong structure of cubism painting appealing, but said it did not seem "alive" compared to futurist art, which, conversely, lacked structure. Vorticism is often seen as a combination of these two movements. After the vorticists only exhibition in 1915, the movement broke up, largely as a result of

    Extractions: Go to My Writing for explanation of this document. Notes on Wyndham Lewis Notes on Tarr As I suspected, what at some points looks as if it is going to be an excellent novel, is badly flawed. When you first read about Tarr, you have your suspicions, but after the first scene with Bertha you hope he is a figure of comedy. You hope he is without much artistic talent, a ne'er do well like Kriesler and Bertha, In fact he is Lewis himself, and his mouthpiece. The trouble with Lewis’s ideas, which is quite obvious, is that he is trying to get one up on Nietzsche. Tarr’s ideas are not well expressed nor easy to grasp. He is trying to move beyond Wildean paradoxes and Nietzschean wisdom. ‘Our child shall be the successor to the superman ‘ says Anastasya. That gives the game away completely. As if Nietzsche is a style, that only has to be replaced by a new style. A kind of schoolboy impertinence whose outcome is plain pretentiousness. Nothing really to say. Implicit nihilism, as if there is only style. So what is vorticism? Kind of imitation futurism. Creating a movement by wanting to do so.
