Welcome
Wyndham Lewis was one of the great Modernist artists and writers. He is best known for the magazine Blast, the art movement Vorticism, and for his brilliant satirical fiction. A painter and writer, Lewis was during his lifetime (1882-1957) a prophet of the global society which the WorldWideWeb signifies by its very existence.
These pages are intended to guide anybody who wants to know about his work. Much of his art and all his books will be described and discussed here.
