Description

Explore the theoretical role of display apparatuses in modern art through Sculpture and the Vitrine (Subject/Object: New Studies in Sculpture). This Routledge publication examines how vitrines and glass cabinets define modes of visibility both inside and outside the museum environment. While elements like the plinth and the picture frame have received extensive art historical study, the vitrine remains an under-discussed component of formal display. This book addresses that gap by looking at how glass enclosures separate objects from their original contexts and group them with other items to reinforce aesthetic or intrinsic values. It offers a detailed look at how these structures shape our perception of art. For students, researchers, and art historians, this text provides a necessary examination of the tools that dictate how we see and categorize sculpture in contemporary settings.
