About this product

Product Information

In France of the early twentieth-century, the term art n gre was as likely to refer to the black music and dance of America as to the sculpture of Africa. Indeed, music and dance, which both racial theorists and novelists portrayed as the "primitive" arts par excellence, were widely believed to exemplify the "genius" of blacks. In Le Tumulte noir , Jody Blake traces the profound impact African sculpture and African American music and dance had upon Parisian popular entertainment as well as upon avant-garde, modernist art, literature, and theater. Through her discussion of the reception of ragtime and jazz, as well as other African visual and performing art forms, Blake provides new ways of understanding the development of modernist "primitivism," from Matisse and Picasso to Dada and Surrealism. She also demonstrates that the influence of art n gre went well beyond the art world. From the notorious cakewalk to the Charleston, African American idioms played a key role in shaping modern cultural, social, and political life.

Reviews
"Blake's work is a must-read for those who, though not exclusively art historians, are nonetheless particularly interested in the influence of African American jazz artists and their lasting impact on French cultural art forms." --Charlene Regester,University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, "Blake is concerned primarily with the a historical disconnection and ideologically problematic and exploitative appropriation of things African and Afro-American by Europeans. It is in this problematic appropriation that Blake makes his most forceful arguments, taking special care to illustrate the transformative process by which the Parisian establishment sought to 'civilize' le tumulte noir." --Charles P. Crouch, Canadian Journal of History, &"Blake's groundbreaking synthesis . . . is well-documented, vividly written, and beautifully illustrated. It greatly helps deepen our understanding of the complexities and apparent contradictions of modernism and its relations to African and African American cultures in colonialist Europe.&" &-Michel Fabre, Université de la Sorbonne Nouvelle, "One would be hard put to find a more succinct summary of the aesthetic importance of black art, song, and dance to the modern world." --Black Issues Book Review, "Blake's groundbreaking synthesis . . . is well-documented, vividly written, and beautifully illustrated.
