Modern Art and Modernism offers firsthand 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 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 and Zola in the nineteenth century to Greenberg and T.
J. Clark in our own times. It offers a balanced section of essays
by contributors to the mainstream of Modernist criticism,
representative examples of writing on the themes of abstraction and
expression in modern art, and a number of important contributions
to the discussion of aesthetics and the social role of the artist.
Several of these are made available in English translation for the
first time, and others are brought together from a wide range of
periodicals and specialized collections.This book will provide an
invaluable resource for teachers and students of modern art, art
history, and aesthetics, as well as for general readers interested
in the place of modern art in culture and history.
