Synopsis of AngloModern: Painting and Modernity in Britain and the United States

En este libro, Janet Wolff explora el arte realista y figurativo de principios del siglo XX en Gran Bretaña y Estados Unidos, mostrando cómo fue marginado tras el auge del arte moderno post-cubista. Analiza los procesos sociales, institucionales, políticos y estéticos que llevaron a este arte a un segundo plano en la posguerra, destacando el papel del género y la etnicidad en las evaluaciones críticas e históricas. Wolff examina tres periodos clave: principios del siglo XX, la posguerra y finales del siglo XX, considerando el resurgimiento de las tradiciones realistas y figurativas y las limitaciones de las discusiones anteriores sobre sus dificultades para perdurar frente al modernismo.
