'Shedding fresh light on the influence of modern art beyond the West, this timely anthology provides a much needed corrective to the Eurocentric historiography of modern art, redefining it as a global rather than a purely Western phenomenon and offering a more worldly and expanded view than any existing modern art survey. 

Divided into three sections focusing on the geographic areas that have been left out of conversations around modernity, the volume brings together a selection of major essays and historical documents addressing not only painting and sculpture but photography, film, and architecture as well. Section introductions, critical essays, and documents provide the relevant contextual material, link each narrative to other art histories in the book, supply essential background information, and guide the reader through the key theoretical positions and debates.' - extracted from the back cover
