Cocteau

Jean Cocteau (1890-1963) was his contemporary Marcel Duchamp’s exact opposite: while Duchamp retreated from creating, Cocteau embraced art in all its forms--music, opera, ballet, and film as well as theatre, novels, graphics, and poetry--while never becoming attached to one "school" (especially not the Surrealists).
