“Art is an outlet toward regions which are not ruled by time and space”
— Marcel Duchamp

Avant-Guardian Musings is a curated space of ideas and information, resources, reviews and readings for undergraduate and graduate students studying modern and contemporary art history and visual art theory, film and photography studies, and the expanding field of visual culture and screen studies. For students currently enrolled in my courses or the field school, the blog and associated social media links also serve as a place of reflection and an extension of the ideas and visual material raised in lecture and seminar discussion.

Egon Schiele, detail from Self-Portrait with Hands on Chest (1910). Schiele’s birthday was this past week on June 12th, and the centennial of his death is being commemorated in Vienna this year. Schiele’s self-portraits remain among the most arresting and psychologically complex in all of art history.

What are the dividing lines between art and propaganda? How has the avant-garde shaped this conversation? Why does this matter in the age of Trump? IMAGE: Sándor Pinczehelyi, Small Star Coca-Cola III (1988), oil on canvas. The cold war Hungarian artist was one of many practitioners featured in Promote, Tolerate, Ban: Art and Culture In Cold War Europe, a book I recently reviewed and discuss as part of a new post looking at the pressing question of how art and propaganda operate in illiberal societies (link in bio) #bookreview #avantgarde #coldwar #propaganda #hungary #coldwar #sandorpinczehelyi #arthistory #avantguardianmusings
