Description

This Routledge collection provides comprehensive examination of how the concept of excess has shaped visual and material culture across four centuries and multiple global contexts. Contributors explore the discursive construction of excess in relation to art, material goods and people, revealing how perceptions and quantifications of excess have evolved whilst tracing consistent beliefs throughout history. The work illuminates the critical importance of understanding excess not as a static idea but as a culturally constructed phenomenon that varies across time periods and societies. Scholars and students of visual culture, material studies, art history and cultural studies will find this collection essential for understanding how excess functions as both a creative force and a subject of critical analysis in shaping aesthetic and material practices from the early modern period to the contemporary era.

Key Features

Routledge academic collection examining excess across visual art, material goods and cultural representation from 1600 to 2010.

Multiple contributor perspectives illuminate how different cultures and time periods have perceived and constructed the concept of excess.

Critical analysis reveals both changing attitudes toward excess over four centuries and underlying consistencies in how societies understand material abundance.

Interdisciplinary approach connecting art history, material culture studies and cultural criticism for comprehensive understanding of excess in historical context.
