In recent years, there has been increasing scholarly interest in
the history of museums, academies and major exhibitions. There has
been, however, little to no sustained interest in the histories of
alternative exhibitions (single artwork, solo artist,
artist-mounted, entrepreneurial, privately funded, ephemeral, etc.)
with the notable exception of those publications that deal with
situations involving major artists or those who would become so -
for example J.L. David's exhibition of Intervention of the Sabine
Women (1799) and The First Impressionist Exhibition of 1874 -
despite the fact that these sorts of exhibitions and critical
scholarship about them have become commonplace (and no less
important) in the contemporary art world. The present volume uses
and contextualizes eleven case studies to advance some overarching
themes and commonalities among alternative exhibitions in the long
modern period from the late-eighteenth to the late-twentieth
centuries and beyond. These include the issue of control in the
interrelation and elision of the roles of artist and curator, and
the relationship of such alternative exhibitions to the dominant
modes, structures of display and cultural ideology.
