Lyrics Saturday, February 10, 2007 Charles Henri Ford Charles Henri Ford born 10 February 1913* (d. 2002) Charles Henri Ford was a novelist, poet, filmmaker, photographer, and collage artist best known for his involvement in the largely gay and bohemian art world in Greenwich Village. Born in Brookhaven, Mississippi, he dropped out of high school, although by 1929, the year he turned 16, he had started his first magazine, Blues Not long after, he became part of Gertrude Stein's salon in Paris, where he became friends with many of the American Expatriate colony at Montparnasse and Saint-Germain-des-Pr©s. With Parker Tyler , who would later become a highly respected film critic, he co-authored The Young and Evil (1933), an energetically experimental novel with obvious debts to fellow Villager Djuna Barnes, and also to Gertrude Stein, who called it "the novel that beat the Beat Generation by a generation." In a series of short, episodic chapters, the novel portrays a collection of young genderqueer artists as they write poems, have sex, move in and out of cheap rented rooms, and duck into the neighbourhood's many speakeasies. The characters' gender and sexual identities are presented with a candor and artfulness that was unique for the time; it was written concurrently with New York's Pansy Craze, when the city's popular culture was bowdlerising homosexuality for entertainment purposes. Nonetheless, it was this candour even more than the novel's surrealism that led to its rejection by several American and British publishers. It was, however, picked up by the Obelisk Press in Paris.

It is a landmark in both gay literature and gay history. Charles Henri Ford was likely born February 10, 1910 (though some sources claim he may have been born as early as 1908, and he himself claimed a birth year of 1913). He grew up in small towns throughout the South, where his parents ran hotels. By age thirteen, he was editing his first publication. Sponsor Message. By his late teens, Ford, working from his home in Columbus, Mississippi, had managed to cultivate the attentions of such noted American poets as Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, H.D. (Hilda Doolittle), and Gertrude Stein, some of whom became contributors to his new journal, Blues . Early on, Ford had determined that he would one day be famous; he was already off to a roaring start.

He was also part of Gertrude Stein's inner circle in Paris in the 1930s and, in the 1960s, an important influence on Andy Warhol. Ford emerged on the literary scene in the early 1930s with the publication of his poetry in some of the leading American periodicals of the day. He eventually published 16 books of poetry, and in 1933 co-wrote, with Parker Tyler, The Young and Evil , a novel based on their adventures in the high-camp homosexual underworld of Greenwich Village. Edith Sitwell described the book as "entirely without soul, like a dead fish stinking in hell", and threw it into her fireplace, declaring that in earlier times she would have had Ford's skin made into a bathmat. Ford envisaged her "fanning the flames with her skirts". It was published in Paris but banned in Britain and the United States until the 1960s, though smuggled copies were given wide circulation in bohemian circles. In the US, Ford was best known as the editor of two influential magazines. In 1929, he launched

JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY ART charles henri ford Allen Frame: What are you working on at the moment? Charles Henri Ford: I've just taken a studio for three months and I'm going to set up a rear projection screen and take more photographs because a publisher in London wants to do a book of my photos. Frame: Whom do you want to add? Ford: Grace Jones, for one, whom I've never met. There's another reason for the rear projection. There's a film being done on me, and I want to get the people photographed with rear projected images to make it more visual, so it's not like all these boring films where people just sit down and yak. Frame: (looking around the studio) These sculptures are yours? Frame: I thought you weren't a fan of his. Ford: The cutouts were what made me swing over to Matisse. They turned me on completely. Picasso's technique was very "cutout," too. Frame: To go back to the beginning. I'm from Mississippi,too. What town are you from? Ford: Brookhaven and Columbus. Frame: Did you go to high schools there?

From Blues to Haikus: An interview with Charles Henri Ford by Rhonda Roland Shearer and Thomas Girst Click to enlarge Charles Henri Ford in his New York apartment, age 87 (2 May 2000) In addition to writing surrealist literature, being a photographer and creating art objects, Charles Henri Ford (b. 1913 in Mississippi) edited such avant-garde magazines as Blues and View . As Alan Jones wrote in Arts Magazine , "Ford opened the pages of his ‘newspaper for poets’ to the swarm of European surrealists (Max Ernst, Yves Tanguy, André Breton, Marcel Duchamp) and the returning native sons and daughters all fleeing Europe for New York. Bridging the worlds of literature and art, View rapidly grew into an art magazine the likes of which the United States had never seen." Charles Henri Ford, together with Parker Tyler, authored the omnisexual novel The Young and the Evil, published in Paris in 1933 and banned in the United States and England for fifty years. His ambitions as a writer and editor brought him in contact with authors like William Carlos Williams, Wallace Stevens, Jean Cocteau and especially Djuna Barnes, for whom he typed up

Calloway, Stephen Baroque Baroque, The Culture of Excess London: Phaidon Press Limited, 1994. Calloway takes the decades of the twentieth century and explores how a baroque sensibility has manifested itself in each one. Film, visual art, fashion and interior design are used to show how this style has persisted in this age of orthodox severity. Surrealism and Neo-Romanticism are reflected in the work of Ford's intimates Pavel Tchelitchew and Cecil Beaton. The extravagance of Ford's friends the Sitwells is examined as being emblematic of this imaginative view of culture. Duncan, Michael
