in connection with a piece on CRASH, I am surveying various pre-fascist and fascist art movements which were preoccupied with machinery. I have cited the Italian futurists specifically. Does anyone know of any other movements, artists, et cetera that might be applicable? Especially, does anyone recall the English Vorticists -- Wyndham Lewis, et al, as I remember -- and if this movement had fascist leanings? Collateral question. I recall that there was a prefascist movement of German rightwing youth called the FREIKORPS, also have a vague memory that a writer named Theiwilligkeit ??? wrote an overview of this organization. Also that there have been references to the "armored male body" which came up in a piece a while back about THE TERMINATOR and similar films. Help on these issues greatly appreciated.
