\Spiritualizing the Material\ and \Dematerializing the World\ in Modernist and Avant-Garde Practice: On the Wider Import of a Distinction Debora Silverman Develops in \Van Gogh and Gauguin\
2006
Overview
This essay seeks to extend Debora Silverman's distinction between van Gogh's project of \"spiritualizing the material\" and Gauguin's related but opposed one of \"dematerializing the world\" to a wider range of modernist and avant garde projects. It employs this distinction in connection with Astradur Eysteinsson's analysis of the problems of using such terms as modernism, the avant-garde, and postmodernism in relation to realism and the various revolts against it that have taken place since the age of romanticism. Eysteinsson's general approach is followed, but also in part questioned and given a different direction through discussions of Duchamp, the surrealists, Baudelaire, and Rimbaud.
