Neue Sachlichkeit and Avant-Garde (Hardcover)

One of the aims of the book is to shed more light on the notion "Neue Sachlichkeit "in its appearance in a variety of fields as painting, architecture, music, photography and literature, in order to get a clearer idea of its scope. Several contributions will do so by analysing the heterogeneity in the use of the term concerning "its function in the fight for recognition "in the art-fields around 1930 - in other words, "Neue Sachlichkeit "will be analysed as a positioning strategy. Especially its participation in the broader discourse on modernity, as well as its international and intermedial dimension will be highlighted, often using the historical avant-garde as point of reference. From this perspective, the present volume wants to be read as a plea for a differentiated description of the many shared aspects "and "some differences between the avant-garde and "Neue Sachlichkeit."
