The Modernity of English Art, 1914-30
Author: David Peters Corbett
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 9780719037337
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
"The modernity of English art reconceptualises the history of English painting from 1914 to the end of the 1920s. Whereas most accounts have tended to see the period as marked by a tension between the native tradition and Modernism, this ground-breaking book rethinks the 1920s by situating both Modernist and non-Modernist painters within a wider cultural history. Established figures such as Paul Nash, Edward Wadsworth and Wyndham Lewis, as well as lesser-known artists like Charles Sims, John Armstrong and Ethelbert White, are discussed and illustrated in a series of innovative readings within this context. The modernity of English art offers a new account of painting in England after 1914 and argues for a strongly revisionist view of the significance of the modern during this important but neglected period in English art." --

The Modernist Response to Chinese Art
Author: Zhaoming Qian
Publisher: University of Virginia Press
ISBN: 9780813921761
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
The Modernist Response to Chinese Art is a work of both erudition and sympathy that reveals the root of modernist poets' otherwise baffling interest in and use of Chinese art. Most impressive, perhaps, is the depth of their embrace of it, as Qian has so convincingly documented. --Patricia C. Williams.
