In this readable and highly original book, John J. Curley presents
the first synthetic account of global art during the Cold War.
Through a careful examination of artworks drawn from America,
Europe, Russia and Asia, he demonstrates the inextricable nature of
art and politics in this contentious period. He dismantles the
usual narrative of American abstract painting versus figurative
Soviet Socialist Realism to reveal a much more nuanced,
contradictory and ambivalent picture of art making, in which the
objects themselves, like spies, dissembled, housed and managed
ideological differences.
