Recenzii

“Preservation, Radicalism, and the Avant-Garde Canon aims to investigate radical art in order to further critical thinking about the avant-garde. … The editors have fully conceptualized the book and skillfully chosen well-versed scholars across disciplines. The objects of study are appropriate and the prose is readable.” (Carol Martin, Theatre Journal, Vol. 69 (1), March, 2017)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Preservation, Radicalism, and the Avant-Garde Canon interrogates the contemporary significance of the avant-garde. The contributors question the role of academia and exhibition cultures in redefining, reshaping, preserving, and transmitting the products of this historical phenomenon. Such contemporary scholarly and exhibition-based exploration institutionalizes avant-garde productions and, in doing so, threatens the potency of the avant-garde which relies on its marginal position.  This volume brings together case studies to examine what constitutes the avant-garde canon.
