Zusammenfassung: | "What do we have in mind when we talk about African art? This book examines the shifting answers to that question. Fluidly written, it is the first book to explore the full historical arc of the invention and development of the category of "African art" and the academic field of African art history. It is meant to be an accessible guide through the history of the field, showing us how it started and has changed from its contested beginnings until today. Peter Probst helps the reader understand how Africanists have continuously filled the notion of African art with new meanings and why these shifts manifest wider societal transformations. The book covers three key stages in the field's history, starting with the late nineteenth through mid-twentieth century. Here Probst focuses on museums, processes of collecting, photography's role in disseminating visual culture, and how early anthropologists and art historians-and artists-imbued collected objects with values that spoke to scientific debates about the evolution and diffusion of culture prominent at the time. Probst then explores the rise of Black Atlantic studies in the 1970s and 1980s, when African art history fell under the gaze of African American critique and saw an explosion of interest in contemporary African art. Finally, he examines the postcolonial reconfiguration of the field driven by questions of heritage, reparation, and the "crisis of representation." Probst believes that if the study of African art is to move in productive new directions, we must look to how the field is evolving in Africa for new models of inquiry"-- |

Fluidly written, it is the first book to explore the full historical arc of the invention and development of the category of "African art" and the academic field of African art history. It is meant to be an accessible guide through the history of the field, showing us how it started and has changed from its contested beginnings until today. Peter Probst helps the reader understand how Africanists have continuously filled the notion of African art with new meanings and why these shifts manifest wider societal transformations.

This book examines the shifting answers to that question. Fluidly written, it is the first book to explore the full historical arc of the invention and development of the category of "African art" and the academic field of African art history. It is meant to be an accessible guide through the history of the field, showing us how it started and has changed from its contested beginnings until today. Peter Probst helps the reader understand how Africanists have continuously filled the notion of African art with new meanings and why these shifts manifest wider societal transformations. The book covers three key stages in the field's history, starting with the late nineteenth through mid-twentieth century. Here Probst focuses on museums, processes of collecting, photography's role in disseminating visual culture, and how early anthropologists and art historians-and artists-imbued collected objects with values that spoke to scientific debates about the evolution and diffusion of culture prominent at the time. Probst then explores the rise of Black Atlantic studies in the 1970s and 1980s, when African art history fell under the gaze of African American critique and saw an explosion of interest in contemporary African art. Finally, he examines the postcolonial reconfiguration of the field driven by questions of heritage, reparation, and the "crisis of representation." Probst believes that if the study of African art is to move in productive new directions, we must look to how the field is evolving in Africa for new models of inquiry"-- Geschichte 1970-1990 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1900-1939 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1966-2022 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1900-2022 gnd rswk-swf Kunstgeschichte Fach (DE-588)4138803-3 gnd rswk-swf Ethnologie (DE-588)4078931-7 gnd rswk-swf Kunst (DE-588)4114333-4 gnd rswk-swf Museum (DE-588)4040795-0 gnd rswk-swf Kunstgeschichtsschreibung (DE-588)4033643-8 gnd rswk-swf Kolonialismus (DE-588)4073624-6 gnd rswk-swf Sammlung (DE-588)4128844-0 gnd rswk-swf Subsaharisches Afrika (DE-588)4053770-5 gnd rswk-swf Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Art, African / Study and teaching / History Art, African / Historiography Art africain / Étude et enseignement / Histoire Art africain / Historiographie Art, African / Study and teaching History Subsaharisches Afrika (DE-588)4053770-5 g Kunstgeschichte Fach (DE-588)4138803-3 s Kunstgeschichtsschreibung (DE-588)4033643-8 s Museum (DE-588)4040795-0 s Kunst (DE-588)4114333-4 s Sammlung (DE-588)4128844-0 s Geschichte 1900-2022 z DE-604 Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 g Ethnologie (DE-588)4078931-7 s Kolonialismus (DE-588)4073624-6 s Geschichte 1900-1939 z USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Geschichte 1970-1990 z Geschichte 1966-2022 z Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 978-0-226-79329-0 Digitalisierung UB Regensburg - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=033914663&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
