Read 'On the Road' by Jack Kerouc, the guidebook of Post-war American youth who gave birth to 'beatniks' (a term coined by San Francisco Chronicle columnist, Herb Caen), what some might call a reactionary group that faced the Korean War and what evolved into the Cold War and the threat of nuclear annihilation with a mixture of intellectualism, nihilism,
pessimism and lots of anxiety. Jazz found a new voice after the War also, introducing Miles Davis, Dizzy Gilespie, Charlie Parker etc., who blew the old days of 'Swing and Sway with Sammy Kaye' crowd away, giving birth to be-bop. In the art world, Jackson Pollack stunned the art world with huge canvases of paint dribbles, Jasper Johns and endless iterations of the American Flag, Claes Oldenburg's sculptures all described a break from the Old to the New.
