Inspired by a 2010 conference, the volume examines art historians' viewing practices and modes of writing. How, the contributors ask, are we to unravel the supposed facts of history from the fictions constructed in works of art? How do art historians employ or resist devices of fiction, and what are the effects of those choices on the reader? In styles by turns witty, elliptical, and plain-speaking, the essays in Fictions of Art History are fascinating and provocative critical interventions in art history. 410 0$aClark studies in the visual arts. 606 $aArt$xHistoriography$vCongresses 606 $aArt in literature$vCongresses 606 $aFiction$xHistory and criticism$vCongresses 615 0$aArt$xHistoriography 615 0$aArt in literature 615 0$aFiction$xHistory and criticism 676 $a700.72/2 702 $aLedbury$b Mark$g(Andrew Mark), 712 12$aFictions of Art History (Conference)$f(2010 :$eSterling and Francine Clark Art Institute) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790905803321 996 $aFictions of art history$93790606 997 $aUNINA
