Réévaluer l'art moderne et les avant-gardes
This book critically re-evaluates 20th-century artistic avant-gardes, challenging the ideologies and works they produced in the wake of postmodernism. It explores the meaning of the 'end of avant-gardes,' their historical context, and how to assess the lasting impact of these artworks beyond their original accompanying discourses. The essays question what these movements reveal about our modernity.
