Excellent reproductions and crisp typography complement the lucid prose.\" ―Wall Street Journal\nTwentieth-century art in America has long been understood in two very separate distinct halves: pre-World War II, often considered as inferior and provincial; and the triumphant, international post-war work that made a complete break with everything that went before. Agee discovers exciting new connections between artists and artworks, which strongly suggest that 1945 was not such a dividing line in art history after all. His fresh research offers an innovative approach and a brilliant take on art history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Phaidon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44977855954997,"sku":"ByrdShop_0714875244","price":32.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780714875248_af014d59-6fb5-4a8c-b533-f5fa1d12f2a9.jpg?v=1778874877","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/modern-art-in-america-190868-9780714875248","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
