Description
Mina Loy: Strangeness Is Inevitable is the first comprehensive study of the life and work of Mina Loy, a pioneering artist and poet of the 20th century. Born in London in 1882, Loy was drawn to modernism through her association with the Italian Futurists, which led to a distinctive and provocative poetry and manifesto-writing style. This book brings together over 50 of Loy's paintings, drawings, and constructions alongside a selection of her poetry and writings, providing a unique insight into her creative output. The publication also features extensive archival materials that shed light on Loy's art within the context of her extraordinary life as an immigrant in America from 1936. By examining Loy's full career, including both her visual work and writing, this book offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating figure who remains largely remembered for her poetry.
