About this title

Synopsis:

The second of two-volumes in which American and British art historians explore visual images of work from Greek pottery to contemporary performance and range through perspectives from France, Britain, Hungary, Soviet Russia, the Ukraine, Siberia, and Germany. This volume discusses traditional analysis of the image of the worker in light of contemporary critical theories that address the question of the subjectivity of the worker in relation to class, gender, nationhood, and the concept of modernity.
