{"product_id":"9780415228664","title":"Pollock and After","description":"First published in 1985, \"Pollock and After\" is a collection of writings on abstract Expressionism. This revised edition, featuring ten new articles, takes account of new critical approaches to post-war American art. Section one examines the legacy of the influential Modernist critic, Clement Greenberg, including both Greenberg's own writings and the debate between T.J. Clark and Michael Fried over his contribution. Section two focuses on revisionist texts, questioning the adequacy of Modernist art history and examining the role of cultural institutions in the United States and the relationship between abstract expressionism and the politics of McCarthyism during the Cold War. The entirely new section three is devoted to recent developments of the critiques first raised by the revisionists. Contributors explore the work of Greenberg's contemporaries, the relationship between critical and institutional responses to art and perceptions of cultural value in the 1940s and 1950s. They also and challenge the unquestioned assumptions about ethnicity, gender and sexuality in the construction of the \"post-war American artist\".","brand":"Francis Frascina","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45771762434366,"sku":"9780415228664","price":9379.78,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9780415228664_333c8c89-b8ce-4d2b-8c65-d34da671b153.jpg?v=1707251949","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780415228664","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
