Recenzii
The content of the individual essays, and the remarkably strong apparatus of bibliographic documentation should render Art and Resistance a solid choice for libraries serving graduate-level programs in history, visual arts, political science, and German studies.
This volume effectively reminds us of the tradition of resistant art in the German twentieth century and insists on its relevance to resist contemporary right-wing populism in Europe and the United States.
Art and Resistance in Germany is an excellent volume that addresses the complex question of art's power to resist political, economic, and social forms of domination. Taking us from the Weimar Republic to today, the essays complement each other as an exploration of the variety of definitions of resistance as it applies to culture. In the process, the authors also analyze canonical German artists and artworks anew as well as introduce us to entirely innovative works of art. From Grosz and Dix through Wilms and Hallmann's Topography of Terror, the book is a fascinating intervention into the analysis of art and politics that has continued relevancy and increased urgency today.
This collection of originally researched essays sheds new light on art in and as resistance across Germany's long twentieth century, providing a critical vocabulary for the analysis of art as politics and politics as artistic expression from the Weimar and Nazi periods to contemporary movements against right-wing nationalism. This volume will be indispensable in understanding Germany's particular place in the landscape of artistic resistance, from everyday registers of artistic action to the high art of leading sculptors and painters, graphic and collage artists, filmmakers and architects.
