Vorticism
Vorticism was a short-lived modernist movement in British art and poetry of the early 20th century,〔West, Shearer (general editor), ''The Bullfinch Guide to Art History'', page 883, Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, United Kingdom, 1996. ISBN 0-8212-2137-X〕 partly inspired by Cubism. The movement was announced in 1914 in the first issue of ''BLAST'', which contained its manifesto and the movement's rejection of landscape and nudes in favour of a geometric style tending towards abstraction. Ultimately, it was their witnessing of unfolding human disaster in World War I that "drained these artists of their Vorticist zeal".〔Sophie Matthiesson, "Blasted Visions" in Gott ''et al'' (2007) p.67〕 Vorticism was based in London but was international in make-up and ambition.
==Origins==
The Vorticism group began with the Rebel Art Centre which Wyndham Lewis and others established after disagreeing with Omega Workshops founder Roger Fry, and has roots in the Bloomsbury Group, Cubism and Futurism. Lewis himself saw Vorticism as an independent alternative to Cubism, Futurism and Expressionism.〔("Vorticism", MoMA The Collection ) Retrieved 17 October 2009〕
Though the style grew out of Cubism, it is more closely related to Futurism in its embrace of dynamism, the machine age and all things modern (cf. Cubo-Futurism). However, Vorticism diverged from Futurism in the way it tried to capture movement in an image. In a Vorticist painting modern life is shown as an array of bold lines and harsh colours drawing the viewer's eye into the centre of the canvas.
The name ''Vorticism'' was given to the movement by Ezra Pound in 1913,〔 although Lewis, usually seen as the central figure in the movement, had been producing paintings in the same style for a year or so previously.〔(Program and menu from The Cave of the Golden Calf, Cabaret and Theatre Club, Heddon Street )〕
