On the Very Edge brings together fourteen empirical and
comparative essays about the production, perception, and reception
of modernity and modernism in the visual arts, architecture, and
literature of interwar Serbia (1918 1941). The contributions
highlight some idiosyncratic features of modernist processes in
this complex period in Serbian arts and society, which emerged "on
the very edge" between territorial and cultural, new and old,
modern and traditional identities.
With an open methodological framework this book reveals a
vibrant and intertwined artistic scene, which, albeit prematurely,
announced interests in pluralism and globalism. On the Very Edge
addresses issues of artistic identities and cultural geographies
and aims to enrich contextualized studies of modernism and its
variants in the Balkans and Europe, while simultaneously remapping
and adjusting the prevailing historical canon.
