Contemporary visual culture; art; theory and criticism shifted after the end of the Cold War; so that cultural production in both the East and the West underwent radical new challenges. Art and Theory After Socialism considers the new critical insights that are produced in the collisions of art theory from the ex-East and ex-West. The collected essays assert that dreams promised by consumerism and capitalism have not been delivered in the East; and that the West is not a zone of liberation; increasingly drawn into global conflict as well as media presentation of a high-risk society.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. 2-5-6!By James JonesA must read for anybody that loved the Muscle Shoals documentary. This is almost like a sequel; showing you that the area will continue to turn out great music for years to come.Blake Ells was absolutely the right person to write this book. He knows the area; he loves the area. I cant think of anyone that would have given the area; the music; and the people the respect they deserve more than him.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. it was nice to put a picture with a few of these ...By Not A ShopperJust finished it; and since Im a newcomer to the "Shoals" area; it was nice to put a picture with a few of these mentioned; who I have had the pleasure of meeting.
