Bruce Altshuler provides an account of more than twenty key exhibitions in Europe, America, and Asia from 1905 through the 60s, presenting a new perspective on advanced art through a focus on critical moments of interaction among artists, dealers, collectors, critics and public."--Publisher description UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/bios/ucal052/97034726.html ER -
