Alice
Explore the phenomenon of Alice in Wonderland, which has captivated readers from Walt Disney to Annie Leibovitz for over 150 years Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderlandis a cultural phenomenon. First published in 1865, it has never been out of print and has been translatedinto 170 languages. But why does it have such enduringand universal appeal, for both adults and children? Thisbook explores the global impact of Alicein art, design, and performance from the 19th century to today. Startingwith the Victorian literary and social context in which thisstory was created, it shows the ways in which Carroll'sbooks have been reimagined and reinterpreted by eachnew generation, from the original illustrations by JohnTenniel to artwork by Peter Blake and Salvador Dal., and from the 1951 Disney movie to Tim Burton's 2010interpretation.
Mapping Impressionist Painting in Transnational Contexts
This book offers microhistories related to the transnational circulations of impressionism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The contributors rethink the role of "French" impressionism in shaping these iterations by placing France within its global and imperialist context and arguing that impressionisms might be framed through the mobility studies’ concept of "constellations of mobility." Artists engaging with impressionism in France, as in other global contexts, relied on, responded to, appropriated, and resisted elements of form and content based on fluid and interconnected political realities and market structures. Written by scholars and curators, the chapters demand reconsideration of impressionism as a historical construct and the meanings assigned to that term. This project frames future discussion in art history, cultural studies, and global studies on the politics of appropriating impressionism.
