Modernity, History, and Politics in Czech Art
Marta FilipovĂĄ
Ă propos de ce livre
This book traces the influence of the changing political environment on Czech art, criticism, history, and theory between 1895 and 1939, looking beyond the avant-garde to the peripheries of modern art. The period is marked by radical political changes, the formation of national and regional identities, and the rise of modernism in Central Europe â specifically, the collapse of Austria-Hungary and the creation of the new democratic state of Czechoslovakia. Marta FilipovĂĄ studies the way in which narratives of modern art were formed in a constant negotiation and dialogue between an effort to be international and a desire to remain authentically local.
