The collection provides a heterogeneous account of the intersections of the fine art world with literature, jazz, film, and theater in New York, Paris, Milan, Brazil, and Cuba. This reveals the knotty and multilayered connections among these divergent artistic milieus. Whether discussing Duchamp's \u003ci\u003eWith My Tongue in My Cheek\u003c\/i\u003e, Brazilian abstraction, postrevolutionary Cuban art, Jean Tinguely's self-destroying machines, or Burroughs's \u003ci\u003eNaked Lunch\u003c\/i\u003e, the contributors show this brief period to be a key to the cultural and political development of Western Europe and the Americas during the Cold War.\u003cbr\u003e Contributors.
