Flâneurs of artistic or scholarly pursuits have long been considered iconic figures of modernism who processed newly industrializing cities of the west in subjective terms by aimlessly wandering through them, absorbing startling, contradictory novelties, and translating their experiences into art that was as radically modern as the fleeting moments it attempted to capture.en-USIn CopyrightUsers assume all responsibility for questions of copyright, invasion of privacy, and rights of publicity that may arise in using reproductions from the library's collections.Oakland University Art GalleryOakland University.
