A major revisionist study of Abstract Expressionism.
Le informazioni nella sezione "Riassunto" possono far riferimento a edizioni diverse di questo titolo.
Polcari provides an account of the contemporary artistic, intellectual and cultural history to establish a macrohistory of human beings under the pressures of war, fear, torment, and hope. Within this context, he convincingly presents Abstract Expressionism as a mode of modern, metaphysical 'history' painting that uses the forms and devices of modern art to come to terms with the brutality of contemporary history.
