Concentrating on the two case studies, \u003ci\u003eBasquiat\u003c\/i\u003e (1996) and \u003ci\u003ePollock\u003c\/i\u003e (2000), the book also discusses larger issues at play, such as how postwar American art history is being mediated for mass consumption.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  This book bridges a gap between art history, film studies and popular culture by investigating how the film genre of biopics adapts written biographies. It identifies the functionality of the biopic genre and explores its implication for a popular art history that is projected on the big screen for a mass audience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54221322420568,"sku":"9781623560324","price":186.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781623560324.jpg?v=1778484661","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/projected-art-history","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
