Some more Vorticist linocuts for you- words I didn't think I'd end up typing when I started this blog. The one above is Henri Gaudier-Brzeska's The Wrestlers (looks like it should be easy to do, probably very difficult. Maybe I should try).
Second, E McKnight Kauffer's Flight- he went on to advertising and to produce posters for the London Underground.
Third, Claude Flight's Revolution- fucking brilliant (and yes, that's art criticism).
Finally Lill Tschudi's Tour De Suisse, which isn't really done justice to in this jpeg.
Today's music- some more slightly barking nu-disco from my current faves Glass Candy; good enough to melt the snow and bring the sun out.
Beatific

Bloody hell! I turn my back for 5 minutes and you've turned your blog into the Tate. I like your taste in art. I like also your snappy synopsis.
Welcome back John- glad you like the changes
Succinct and to the point--the best kind of art criticism.
More Glass Candy!! Takes me back to downtown NYC 79-81!!!
Just wanted to say i love what you do on here. Its a little visual and aural treat.
Love the linocuts.

Wot, no Wyndham Lewis? He was Lord of the Vorts.
Mmm, I should do Wyndham Lewis.
