Description
Mina Loy: A Life of Genius and Artistic Abundance This biography explores the extraordinary life of Mina Loy, a multihyphenate artist who defied conventions in her pursuit of creativity. Born in London in 1882, Loy lived a life of flamboyant adventure, embracing various artistic pursuits, including poetry, painting, novel-writing, and performance. Through rare images and insightful analysis, Mary Ann Caws sheds new light on Loy's remarkable life, which spanned multiple continents and artistic movements. From her involvement with Futurism to her work in Christian Science and fashion, Loy's story is one of unapologetic individuality and a passion for the modern and modernist. This book features many rare images of Mina Loy and her husband Arthur Cravan, whose mysterious disappearance in 1918 adds to the enigma surrounding their lives.
