Historical Narratives of Global Modern Art
Author: Irina D. Costache
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000898032
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Diversifying the current art historical scholarship, this edited volume presents the untold story of modern art by exposing global voices and perspectives excluded from the privileged and uncontested narrative of “isms.” This volume tells a worldwide story of art with expanded historical narratives of modernism. The chapters reflect on a wide range of issues, topics, and themes that have been marginalized or outright excluded from the canon of modern art. The goal of this book is to be a starting point for understanding modern art as a broad and inclusive field of study. The topics examine diverse formal expressions, innovative conceptual approaches, and various media used by artists around the world and forcefully acknowledge the connections between art, historical circumstances, political environments, and social issues such as gender, race, and social justice. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, imperial and colonial history, modernism, and globalization.

The Cobra Movement in Postwar Europe
Author: Karen Kurczynski
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351034480
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
This book examines the art of Cobra, a network of poets and artists from Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam (1948–1951). Although the name stood for the organizers’ home cities, the Cobra artists hailed from countries in Europe, Africa, and the United States. This book investigates how a group of struggling young artists attempted to reinvent the international avant-garde after the devastation of the Second World War, to create artistic experiments capable of facing the challenges of postwar society. It explores how Cobra’s experimental, often collective art works and publications relate to broader debates in Europe about the use of images to commemorate violent events, the possibility of free expression in an art world constrained by Cold War politics, the breakdown of primitivism in an era of colonial independence movements, and the importance of spontaneity in a society increasingly dominated by the mass media. This book will be of interest to scholars in art history, 20th-century modern art, avant-garde arts, and European history.

Missing Person
Author: Federico Sanchez
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1462833217
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Missing Person is a novel that stars Larry, a neurologist turned neuropsychologist, who knows his father, Lawrence has committed suicide and gone missing. When detectives Ramirez and OMalley of the NYPD look into the matter, they have strong reasons to believe that there has been foul play, or that Lawrence has staged his own disappearance. Lawrence wrote a book explaining why OJ was innocent, and maybe it is the reason he was killed. There is also evidence that things arent what they seem, compounded by the theory of OJs innocence. Lawrence has left, or sent to many people, a series of tantalizing stories, many about suicide, as clues to what happened. The various parties, each for their own and different reasons, begin a frantic search to find the stories. This is a novel about suicide and how people go missing: they die (are killed or commit suicide), or they voluntarily choose to disappear.
