Explore the contested landscape of modern art with John Roberts’ “Art Has No History!: The Making and Unmaking of Modern Art.” This essential collection features incisive essays by leading art historians and artists, critically examining how modern art history is constructed. Featuring analyses of pivotal figures like Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman, and Gerhard Richter, the book challenges prevailing interpretations by reinstating the artist’s intention and social agency. Roberts revisits the legacy of Marxist art criticism, arguing for historical materialism’s relevance in understanding artistic creation. “Art Has No History!” is a vital, iconoclastic work for anyone seeking a deeper, conflict-aware understanding of post-war art.
