Bemerkung:

Gutes Ex.; aus der Bibliothek von James Hofmaier (Besitzerstempel); wenige Bleistift-Anstreichungen; Einband stw. berieben. - Pollock and After is a selection of texts mainly from the 1970s and early 1980s which together constitute a debate about the adequacy of Modernist history and explanation of modern art in general, and of Abstract Expressionism and its legacy in particular. It includes examples of 'revisionist' accounts of the relationship between Abstract Expressionism and the politics of the Cold War, which represent recent attempts to provide a critique of Modernist cultures by those interested in the social history of art. ?
