“Trocchi would barely have encountered Beckett’s work while he was finishing his first novel 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘥𝘢𝘮 but the marks of the Irish writer’s influence on 𝘊𝘢𝘪𝘯’𝘴 𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘬 are undeniable and even explicit.”
—Calum Barnes on “Situating 𝘊𝘢𝘪𝘯’𝘴 𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘬”

"The View Toward the City," Torsten Jovinge, 1930.
Jovinge (1898-1936) was a Swedish Modernist painter who had a brief but influential career.
He called his style "Purism" and was seen to be influenced by Cubism, with his use of colorful shapes in his work. But rather than distorting his subjects, or playing with perspective, he represents in his own way. He breaks them down into shapes but still retains some shading and texture.
His works were popular in his home country and were an influence on Swedish Modernism. He did a number of works set in various parts of Europe. He began painting and developed his style in the 1920s, traveling in Paris and other areas, and staying mostly in Sweden and Denmark in the 30s.
In 1936, he decided to travel to Morocco to paint, and during a stopover in Seville he was found shot to death in his hotel room. Spanish authorities, at the time caught up in the Spanish Civil War, claimed it was suicide, but the general agreement is that it was murder for unknown reasons.

"Untitled (Dragon)," Rabindranath Tagore, 1st half of 20th century.
Born in Bengal, Tagore (1861-1941) was an impressive polymath. Mostly remembered today as a poet, he was also a composer, author, playwright, philosopher, social reformer, and a painter, and a major figure of the Bengal Renaissance. He is often credited with singlehandedly reshaping Bengali literature and music, and combining Modernism with traditional Indian painting.
He was the first non-European to win a Nobel Prize (for literature, in 1913), but didn't start painting until he was in his 60s. He drew in all sorts of influences from Western and Indian art. He is also now believed to have been red/green color blind, which explains the unusual color schemes and aesthetics of his works.
His was a remarkable life, crammed with incident and achievement; I suggest you look into it yourself!

There’s not a lot of coherent ideologies anymore.
A whole bunch of institutions, parties, and people have been reduced to vibes, memes, and performance art.
Being a heretical moderate might be the way forward:
