In this stimulating book an eminent scholar presents a wide-ranging reformulation of art history in the twentieth century. Bernard Smith argues that twentieth-century art can no longer be written as a succession of avant-garde movements. Rather modernism--the dominant 'style' of art from the 1890s to the 1960s--deserves recognition as a period style.
