Insane Acquaintances explores a range of exhibitions, organisations
and institutions that mediated and promoted modernism in Britain.
In a series of case studies on subjects ranging from the first
Postimpressionist exhibition in London in 1910, the teaching of
modernist art in schools, the decoration and design of the
modernist home, the International Surrealist exhibition in London
in 1936 and the Festival of Britain in 1951, Insane Acquaintances
charts some of the ways in which modernism not only sought to
improve the quality of art but also the quality of art's reception
in Britain. It also provides an institutional history of some of
the groups and organisations that fostered modernist art in Britain
during that period.
