Author: Vincenzo de Bellis, Arturo Galansino (eds.)
This diverse survey of American art uses two of the nation’s most significant events as its chronological boundaries: the failed Bay of Pigs Invasion in 1961 and the 2001 September 11 attacks, between which the US saw the emergence of some of its most noteworthy artists. This paperback volume features work by artists such as Jasper Johns, Donald Judd, Barbara Kruger, Robert Mapplethorpe, Bruce Nauman, Cindy Sherman, Robert Rauschenberg, Kara Walker and Andy Warhol.The publication examines the many themes and techniques developed during those 40 years within the greater context of American history and culture, from modernist abstraction to mass production. These generations of artists probed the very notion of what art is and what it can do using paint, performance, installation, video and photography.
