International art historians explore many different aspects of the period which saw post-war austerity, decolonisation, and the birth of postmodernism Takes a variety of approaches, from the broad canvas of the political economy of art to closely attentive readings of individual artists and works, from Bacon to Stirling, and the Independent Group to Pop Art Invaluable for students and scholars of the field, as well as general readers, including the growing number of collectors of twentieth-century British art "-- "Presents a major contribution to a fresh assessment of the field, informed by new research"--
