초록
This paper investigates how the works of Williams and Demuth have a common artistic direction. Since they knew their identical interest in both poetry and painting, the two artists have had a longtime friendship. Through the exchanges of their intertextual discourse, they can create a unified art across the boundary between pictorial and linguistic media. Thus, Williams' “The Pot of Flowers” and Demuth's “I Saw the Figure Five in Gold” are their collaborations of intertextuality. Significantly, they endeavored to create a new American expression which is based on Precisionism. In fact, Precisionism, which intrinsically has poetic and aesthetic characteristics at the same time, is said to be regarded as the most indigenous American art. Both Williams and Demuth try to reflect an American identity in poetry and paintings through a medium of Precisionism. Therefore, Precisionism plays an important role as a link which connects the two artists. However, the two artists want to recreate a new work of art by avoiding the mere literal imitation of each other's works. They adopt pictorial elements in poetry and linguistic elements in paintings so that they can ultimately make true collaborations. Accordingly, Williams and Demuth intend a unified art which reflects the most American things by mutually supplementing the limits of poetry and paintings respectively.
Abstract
This paper investigates how the works of Williams and Demuth have a common artistic direction. Since they knew their identical interest in both poetry and painting, the two artists have had a longtime friendship. Through the exchanges of their intertextual discourse, they can create a unified art across the boundary between pictorial and linguistic media. Thus, Williams' “The Pot of Flowers” and Demuth's “I Saw the Figure Five in Gold” are their collaborations of intertextuality. Significantly, they endeavored to create a new American expression which is based on Precisionism. In fact, Precisionism, which intrinsically has poetic and aesthetic characteristics at the same time, is said to be regarded as the most indigenous American art. Both Williams and Demuth try to reflect an American identity in poetry and paintings through a medium of Precisionism. Therefore, Precisionism plays an important role as a link which connects the two artists. However, the two artists want to recreate a new work of art by avoiding the mere literal imitation of each other's works. They adopt pictorial elements in poetry and linguistic elements in paintings so that they can ultimately make true collaborations. Accordingly, Williams and Demuth intend a unified art which reflects the most American things by mutually supplementing the limits of poetry and paintings respectively.
