Isidore Isou
Isidore Isou (; 29 January 1925 – 28 July 2007), born Isidor Goldstein, was a Romanian-born French poet, dramaturge, novelist, film director, economist, and visual artist.

An important figure in the mid-20th Century avant-garde, he is remembered in the cinema world chiefly for his revolutionary 1951 film '' Traité de Bave et d'Éternité,'' while his political writings are seen as foreshadowing the May 1968 movements.

In the 1950s, he came to prominence as a distributor and reissuer of Buster Keaton movies which he partnered with Keaton for.

He is primarily known as a pioneer in sound poetry and for his use of décollage within Nouveau réalisme. Lettrist, Ultra-Lettrist and Nouveau réalisme movements Dufrene, along with Gil J. Wolman and Brion Gysin, was one of the stalwarts of the experimental poetry in France.
