Description
Book SynopsisIn a global art world, how fares the nation?
Trade Review"Narratives Unfolding tackles a central project in the discipline of art history, one which has important implications for all humanistic enquiry: how to understand the persistent human need to project social imaginaries in the face of the displacements, dislocations, and demands for similarity that have accompanied globalization. Martha Langford offers a brilliant summary of the most influential thinking on these questions as they apply to contemporary art and to the challenges of thinking about it historically." Terry Smith, University of Pittsburgh
