On Nelson Osorio and the avant-garde

He says also subtly suggests it is not the beginning of something, but the end of something. This would explain why I feel pulled toward the 19th century. “Make it new,” said said Pound; but he could say that because it was still it, back then. That is to say: “it” was new or seemed so, but Pound was referring backward. Avant-garde as end and not beginning of an era.

Axé.
