Moving Modernism - Nell (Associate Professor of Art History Andrew - Bog

Moving Modernism reenacts the simultaneous eruption of three spectacular revolutions: the development of pictorial abstraction, the first modern dance, and the birth of cinema, which together changed the artistic landscape of early-twentieth-century Europe and the future of modern art. This study follows the chronology of the historical avant-garde to show how dance and pictures were engaged in a kindred exploration of the limits of art and perception that
required the process of abstraction.
