Autorenporträt
Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) was an innovative American writer and a central figure in Parisian avant-garde culture. Stein attended Harvard University, where she became a student of philosopher William James. Subsequently, she pursued medical studies at Johns Hopkins University, which she left unfinished. Moving to Paris in 1903, she became part of the modernist movement, inviting into her home the era's prominent artists and writers. Stein's literary work is marked by a radical use of language and narrative forms, often experimenting with stream-of-consciousness and repetition. She wrote 'Tender Buttons' which is considered one of her most groundbreaking works, using an abstract composition of words to delve conceptual heft into ordinary objects and experiences. Her book 'The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas,' written in the voice of her life partner, was a bestseller and is one of her most accessible works. Stein's essay on 'Picasso,' is a testament to her incisive capacity to engage with visual art, and encapsulates her formidable role as a patron of the arts and as an intellectual interlocutor for pioneering artists of her time. Her works resonate with the spirit of Cubism, mirroring the fragmented and complex nature of early 20th century art and thought. Gertrude Stein's contribution to literature and the arts remains as an enduring testament to her legacy as both a patron and a revolutionary literary figure.
