- This is a 110,000-word study of the experimental zeitgeist in Eastern European art. Countering the Cold War narrative of Eastern bloc isolation, it elaborates how artistic ideas were relayed among like-minded artists across national frontiers and ideological boundaries. The book is based on archival research and interviews carried out by the author in Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, the UK, and the USA. This work was supported by the Leverhulme Trust (2009-12), the Igor Zabel Association (2010), the Arts and Humanities Research Council (2013-14), and the Courtauld’s Research Committee (2014-17).
