Routledge Globalizing East European Art Histories Book

Globalizing East European Art Histories: Past and Present offers a new way to look at East-Central European art. This Routledge Research in Art History collection moves away from the idea that this region is a closed or isolated cultural landscape. Instead, it provides transnational perspectives that connect regional and national histories to the wider world. By looking at how art in this area interacts with global actors and institutions, the book places East-Central Europe into modern discussions about global issues. The contributors use empirical evidence and theoretical arguments to change how scholars and readers understand these art histories. This book is a necessary resource for anyone looking to understand how regional art is part of a much larger, interconnected global movement.
