Product Description
by Annika Öhrner (Editor), Piotr Piotrowski (Contribution by), Mathilde Arnoux (Contribution by)
How should we understand post-war art? How were issues
of cultural transfer and curatorial strategies dealt with in the
extended 1960s - the era of pop?
Art in Transfer in the Era of Pop juxtaposes issues and contexts
approaching the concept and reception of Pop Art.
Contributors from Europe and beyond weave a web that
resists the notion of universialism, adding to art historian
Piotr Piotrowski's "horizontal" art history. This volume avoids
the historiographic stance where the US--Europe relationship
appears to be a one-way affair. Instead, the reader is drawn
into the history of the circulation and cross-pollination of
ideas, the aesthetic practices and the various contexts that
influenced them.
