Public Monuments: Art in Political Bondage 1870-1997
Angebote / Angebote:
The author sets out to show how, in its golden age (up until 1914), the public monument served the purpose of both education and legitimization. The French Third Republic, for instance, envisaged the monument as a symbol of bourgeois meritocracy. In more recent decades the public monument has been charged with the task of commemorating and symbolizing one of mankind's most terrible catastrophes - the Holocaust. Today, although the artistic failure of countless European war memorials has signalled the beginning of the demise of the public monument in the West, it continues to flourish elsewhere, commemorating despotic leaders such as Kim Il Sung to Saddam Hussain.
