Global Perspectives in Modern Art: Turning Points of the 20th Century identifies the trailblazers and pioneers of the art world(s) and recognizes established traditions —and the groundbreakers who challenged them. 

Cindy Lisica’s account of twentieth-century art presents an indispensable and inclusive overview of Modernism that acknowledges the “big hits” while illuminating previously overlooked narratives and artists across the globe. The text covers major movements from impressionism to street art and new media, re-envisioning existing narratives with a contemporary eye toward gender, cultural analysis, and socio-political concerns. 

The ten-chapter e-book includes an array of full-color images and links to museum collections and established academic resources. This feature helps students to direct their research to appropriate primary sources, view further images in context, and extend their learning opportunities online. The interactive features include the ability to search and highlight text, annotate and insert notes, bookmark pages, and even create flashcards for study.
