Modern Art and Modernism offers first-hand material for the study
of issues central to the development of modern art, its theory and
criticism. The history of modern art is not simply a history of
works of art, it is also a history of ideas and interpretations.
The works of critics and theorists have not merely been influential
in deciding how modern art is to be seen and understood, they have
also influenced the course it has taken. The nature of modern art
cannot be understood without some analysis of the concept of
Modernism itself.
Modern Art and Modernism presents a selection of texts by the
major contributors to debate on this subject, from Baudelaire to
Zola in the 19th century to Greenburg and T J Clark on our own
times. It offers a balanced selection of essays by contributors to
the mainstream of Modernist criticism, representative examples of
writing on the themes of abstraction and expressionism in modern
art, and a number of important contributions to the discussion of
aesthetics and the social role of the artist.
