New Histories of Art in the Global Postwar Era

"This book maps key moments in the history of post-war art from a global perspective. The reader is introduced to a new globally oriented approach to art, artists, museums, and movements of the postwar era (1945-1970). Specifically, this book bridges the gap between historical artistic centres, such as Paris and New York, and peripheral loci. Through case studies, previously unknown networks, circulations, divides and controversies are brought to light. From the development of Ethiopian modernism, to the showcase of Brazilian modernity, this book provides readers with a new set of coordinates and a reassessment of well-trodden art historical narratives around modernism. This book will be of interest to scholars in art historiography, art history, exhibition and curatorial studies, modern art and globalization"--
