Case studies on Dadaism, decadence, fauvism, neo-impressionism, symbolism, and various anarchisms explore the influence anarchism had on the avant-gardes and reflect on avant-garde tendencies within anarchism. This volume also explores the divergence of anarchism and the avant-gardes. It offers a rich examination of politics and arts, and it complements an ongoing discourse with theoretical tools to better assess the aesthetic, social, and political cross-pollination that took place between the avant-gardes and the anarchists in Europe. 410 0$aAvant garde critical studies ;$v38. 606 $aArt$xPolitical aspects 606 $aAnarchism and art 606 $aAvant-garde (Aesthetics)$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aAvant-garde (Aesthetics)$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aArt$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aAnarchism and art. 615 0$aAvant-garde (Aesthetics)$xHistory 615 0$aAvant-garde (Aesthetics)$xHistory 676 $a335.8309 702 $aKosuch$b Carolin$f1981- 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821682003321 996 $aAnarchism and the avant-garde$94047844 997 $aUNINA
