Globalization and Contemporary Art cover

In a series of newly commissioned essays by both established and emerging scholars, Globalization and Contemporary Art probes the effects of internationalist culture and politics on art across a variety of media. Globalization and Contemporary Art is the first anthology to consider the role and impact of art and artist in an increasingly borderless world.

  • First major anthology of essays concerned with the impact of globalization on contemporary art
  • Extensive bibliography and a full index designed to enable the reader to broaden knowledge of art and its relationship to globalization
  • Unique analysis of the contemporary art market and its operation in a globalized economy
  • <

"Though most essays address the junction between globalization and contemporary art, some deal with 20th- and late 19th-century art. Ambitous and wide in scope, this invaluable study should be read by students of art and visual culture. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-level undergraduates and above."
