Description
Rethinking Art Between the Wars: New Perspectives in Art History offers fresh insights into the art world during the interwar period. This collection of articles reworks and reconceptualises existing notions on the subject, exploring topics such as the intersection of modernity and power, the role of women in avant-garde movements, and the semiotics of surrealist images. The book delves into the socially conditioned framings of the Fine Arts, examining how works of art from this period reflect a range of discourses on power and subjectivity. It also considers methodological questions regarding the changes in the discipline of Art History since the early 1970s. With four new approaches, this publication contributes to ongoing reflections on the development of aesthetic pluralism and the post-war era's artistic landscape.
