Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Art History and Its Institutions focuses on the institutional discourses that shaped and continue to shape the field from its foundation in the nineteenth century. From museums and universities to law courts, labor organizations and photography studios, contributors examine a range of institutions, considering their impact on movements such as modernism, their role in conveying or denying legitimacy, and their impact of defining the parameters of the discipline.

About the Author
Elizabeth Mansfield is Assistant Professor of Art History at the University of the South, Sewanee.
