Modern Art and the Object: A Century of Changing AttitudesThe book opens with an extensive account of the complex, changing relationship between art and the object over the past hundred years, starting with late nineteenth-century painting, as in Cezanne, and culminating with conceptual art. The view which emerges is that the relationship between art and the object has a constantly shifting emphasis, advancing and receding, always the same but never alike. |
