In this monumental book, the best of its kind in the world, the four most important and influential art historians of our time present an innovative and in-depth exploration of the history of 20th-century art.
The authors, using theories and methods of art (ranging from psychoanalysis and sociological approaches to post-structuralism), offer an exceptionally penetrating perspective over time. Their particularly sharp viewpoint is richly enriched by philosophy, history, and sociology, while still adhering to the chronological sequence of the evolution of movements.
Each contributes an introduction that examines the methodology and theoretical frameworks for understanding the art of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The book is designed in such a way as to facilitate readers in tracking the evolution of art throughout the entirety of the previous century up to the present day.
The result of this structure allows readers to follow a chronological account of 20th-century art or to pursue their own path as the narrative follows events by year. The texts are accompanied by over six hundred images of works.
