TWINNED TOWERS
learned that, instead of the first model of the Monument to the Third International, the House of the Unions (Дом союзов) had decided to exhibit a samovar. This displacement, or replacement, represented the very beginning of a process that would eventually lead, in 1933, to the exhibition “Artists of Russia” in which Tatlin’s artworks, in a gesture not unlike that of the notorious “Degenerate Art” exhibition in Germany, were relegated to a small hall dedicated to “Formalist excesses,” and state-sponsored art critics derided him as “no artist whatsoever.”101 Tatlin— who, after building the model of the tower, worked for several years on Letatlin, the individualized aerial bicycle that he hoped could be mass produced—ended up not soaring to the sky like Dedalus (or, for that matter, Leonardo), but, mostly unappreciated, painting portraits and still-lives of flowers, with nary a spiral in sight. Meanwhile Yeats, in the last decade of his life, still clung to his vision of gyres “running on,” yet increasingly scorned the sort of artist or poet “now growing up . . . all out of shape from toe to top,” and retreated to the solidity of localized native stone, singing, at times bitterly, of human unsuccess.
L’HABITE EN SPIRALE DUCHAMP, JOYCE, AND THE INELUCTABLE VISIBILITY OF ENTROPY
Language is just no damn good—I use it because I have to, but I don’t put any trust in it. •

JAMES JOYCE, ULYSSES
� � � Their inevitable “failures” aside—the word “fail” is etymologically related not only to “lacking” but also to “falling”—Tatlin’s and Yeats’s twinned spiral towers of the early post–Great War period amply demonstrate the durability of their makers’ grand and totalizing ambitions, ambitions that include not only ways of making art (with or without “Personality”) but also ways of activating history and theatrically giving shape to the future. Although spirals later in the twentieth century never again achieved quite the earnest, energetic grandiosity with which they were associated in Yeats’s and Tatlin’s work, and although that grandiosity would, in fact, itself come to be derided, the spiral ambition itself still must be admired, wondered at. Next we explore two equally wonderful forms of spiraling, though ones associated less with energy than with entropy: those of James Joyce, who of course had his own interest in flying, Dedalus-like, and that of Marcel Duchamp, who had his own notions of spirals “running on.”
PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A THRUSTING SPIRAL In 1929, the editors of the newly formed, Paris-based English-language publishing house Black Sun Press commissioned a drawing of James Joyce from the Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi for a limited edition of fragments of the ongoing Work in Progress that they planned to publish later that year.1 Brancusi produced two drawings that certainly resembled Joyce but did not have the modern signature style sought by the editors, so the editors asked the artist to try again. This time, Brancusi created a far more abstract work, titled Symbole de Joyce, consisting of three vertical, straight lines of varying lengths spaced at intervals along the paper and, on the right half of the drawing, a large Archimedean spiral (figure 28). Brancusi later commented that this portrait captured le sens du pousser (the sense of pushing or thrusting) he thought to be his model’s
