'A provocative interrogation of the multidimensional relations among the visual arts. Consistently lucid, informed and original, these essays reveal unexpected and hitherto unexplored aspects of modernity and visual culture that suggest fresh and creative ways of rethinking these phenomena. An outstanding collection.' - Ronald Bogue, University of Georgia, USA 'The sixteen essays gathered in this volume offer stimulating perspectives on the cultural and media processes which have just led, since the early twentieth century to the present day, to such an alleged loss of the museum's walls.' - Susana S. Martins, Journal of Curatorial Studies 2.2
