Moravagine is a Blaise Cendrars (1887-1961) novel, published by Grasset en 1926.
Wet Confetti is an art rock band that formed in Portland, Oregon during November 2000.
 They are a three piece that consist of Alberta Poon on vocals, Bass VI and keytar; Daniel Grazzini on guitar and keyboards; and Michael McKinnon on drums.
 The band's name is taken from the French novel To the End of the World by Blaise Cendrars.
 The band blends rock, punk, pop, noise, rhythmic drumming and melodic breathless vocals together to make their own very distinctive sound.
 In January 2007 they introduced Richel Martinez as a live touring member.
 The band recently appeared in the third installment of the Burn to Shine series produced by Fugazi's Brendan Canty and directed by filmmaker Christoph Green.
 Their most recent album, "Laughing Gasping", was published by Pampelmoose, a label started by Gang of Four bass player Dave Allen.
Remy de Gourmont (4 April 1858 – 27 September 1915) was a French Symbolist poet, novelist, and influential critic.
 He was widely read in his era, and an important influence on Blaise Cendrars and Georges Bataille.
 The spelling "Rémy" de Gourmont is incorrect, albeit common and used by Ezra Pound in translations of his work.
La Création du monde, Op.
 81a, is a 15-minute-long ballet composed by Darius Milhaud in 1922–23 to a libretto by Blaise Cendrars, which outlines the creation of the world based on African folk mythology.
 The premiere took place on 25 October 1923 at Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris.
Frédéric-Louis Sauser (1 September 1887 – 21 January 1961), better known as Blaise Cendrars, was a Swiss-born novelist and poet who became a naturalized French citizen in 1916.
 He was a writer of considerable influence in the European modernist movement.
Jean Hugo (19 November 1894 – 21 June 1984) was a painter, illustrator, theatre designer and author.
 He was born in Paris and died in his home at the Mas de Fourques, near Lunel, France.
 Brought up in a lively artistic environment, he began teaching himself drawing and painting and wrote essays and poetry from a very early age.
 His artistic career spans the 20th century, from his early sketches of the First World War, through the creative ferment of the Parisian interwar years, and up to his death in 1984.
 He was part of a number of artistic circles that included Jean Cocteau, Raymond Radiguet, Pablo Picasso, Georges Auric, Erik Satie, Blaise Cendrars, Marie-Laure de Noailles, Paul Eluard, Francis Poulenc, Charles Dullin, Louis Jouvet, Colette, Marcel Proust, Jacques Maritain, Max Jacob, Carl Theodor Dreyer, Marie Bell, Louise de Vilmorin, Cecil Beaton and many others.
The Dutch artist Otto van Rees (1884-1957), son of a family of academics, started his career in Paris, where he moved in 1904.
 By intermediation of Picasso, whom Van Rees met in the café Le Lapin Agile, Van Rees put up at an atelier in the Bateau Lavoir.
 At the Académie Carrière he became friends with George Braque.
 The Bateau Lavoir was a lively place where his contact with other artists, painters, (Picasso, Léger, Gris, Van Dongen) as well as writers (Max Jacob, Blaise Cendrars, Apollinaire) deepened.
 His wife and fellow artist, Adya van Rees-Dutilh joint him soon after.
 Paris would be their winter residence on and off for over 30 years.
 Some of his fellow artists became dear friends over many years: Severini, Segal, Freundlich, Mondriaan, Arp, Zadkine.
 The summers were spent at Fleury-en-Bière, a little town next to Barbizon.
 Kees van Dongen spent the summer of 1905 there, together with Otto and Adya van Rees in the farmhouse Van Rees rented.
 They painted together in the fields around the village.
 Picasso was also a visitor, as well as other artists: Otto Freundlich, Marc Chagall and Blaise Cendrars to mention a few.
 After a stay in Italy his first grand exposition of 48 luministic paintings was held in 1908 in Rotterdam at the Oldenzeel gallery, gallery famous for its exhibitions (1892-1904) of works by Vincent van Gogh.
 In Paris, during the early years, Otto van Rees exhibited his work at the gallery of Berthe Weil and Clovis Sagot and at the yearly Salon des Artistes Indépendants.
 He also had part in the Sonderbund, Cöln in 1912 and the famous exhibition of Der Sturm in 1913.
 In 1912-1916 the art of Van Rees went through changes, pointillism and luminism lost his interest.
 His work evolved from physic cubism, as Apollinaire described it, to analytic cubism.
 One of the first collectors of his art then was Arthur Jerôme Eddy.
 During the first world war Van Rees changed his French summer residence for Ascona, little town at the Lago Maggiore.
 The artistic and anarchistic colony there was inspiring.
 With Arp, who later spent Christmastime 1915 at the Van Rees, Otto and Adya held the famous exposition of November 1915 at the gallery Tanner in Zürich.
 This exposition is now seen as the beginning of Dada-Zürich.
 The art dealer Henri Kahnweiler named Van Rees as an artist that brought the collage technique from Paris to Zürich as the start of Dada Art.
 Ascona would keep Van Rees’ preference.
 In 1928 Otto van Rees constructed a house on the hills there.
 The house had a ground plan of a circle and a square, announcing the famous 1930 collective art show of Cercle et Carré.
 After the tragic death of their oldest daughter, killed in a train accident in France, Otto van Rees spent more and more time in Holland.
 He moved there in 1934.
 In Holland the young painters called him their Nestor, who taught them the profound values on art.
 Many public buildings in Holland: churches, railway station, courthouse, ministry, theatres were embellished by his mural paintings .
"The Legend of Novgorode" was the first poem of Blaise Cendrars published in 1907.
 This text was considered for a long time as lost, or as a product of his author's imagination, until in 1995, a copy was discovered by chance in a Bulgar bookshop.
 After a raging controversy, this copy is now mostly considered as a fraud, with a very good impersonation of Cendrars' (signing at that time Frédéric Sauser) style.
 This first poem would reveal the origins of the nickname that was chosen by Fréderic Sauser.
 The authenticity of the document is still questionable today.
