Mansbach’s (National Gallery of Art) book traces the development of modern art, Cubism, Expressionism, and Constructivism, and other art styles in Eastern Europe. It is lavishly illustrated including black-and-white photographs and a smaller number of high-quality colour plates. Mansbach’s writing is informative and comprehensive but ends at 1939 leaving an opening for a book on Eastern European art post-1939. This is a wonderful contribution to the history of art in the area, as well as being an exploration of a section of modern art that, up until now, has been inaccessible to many in the Western world. A useful reference source for those studying Western Europe. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
In this award-winning study, Steven Mansbach provides the first coherent narrative of the modern art movements of Eastern Europe. Analyzing a vast range of works, many reproduced here for the first time, the author argues that our understanding of modernism is incomplete without consideration of this material. He shows how Cubism, Expressionism and Constructivism, among other modernist styles, were amalgamated with deeply rooted visual traditions in several vital centers, including Prague, Warsaw, and Budapest, in order to express the most pressing concerns of the day, particularly nationalism. Mansbach also considers the critical response of the Eastern European art public to these various avante-garde movements. A revisionist interpretation of modernism, Modern Art in Eastern Europe provides a much-needed reassessment of the art of this century, as well as its historiography.
