Proceedings of the International Conference under the patronage of Comité international d'histoire de l'art (CIHA), organised by the Zentralinstitut für Kunstgeschichte, Munich, and the international Cultural Centre, Cracow (6-12 September, 2003). "This volume is dedicated to the controversial aspects of national and international artistic expression in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It focuses on issues of national identity, cultural transfer, and modernism, with particular emphasis on Central Europe, where entire geographical areas were repeatedly distributed and redistributed by the Great Powers of the day. The individual papers address a variety of basic questions: Where and how did the yearning for specific national paradigms determine art art and architecture in the nineteenth century? What happened when, notably in the twentieth century, the constitution of a transnational avant-garde consciously and deliberately transgressed all conventional national boundaries? Which styles were -- and eventually are -- chosen to establish, strengthen, and openly express independent nationhood?".
