| description | Ruth E. Iskin’s new collection presents the artists and genres of a new global art and reflects on the challenges they offer the museum, gallery administrators, and scholars of the future. She and her contributors are particularly concerned with the likelihood of a new canon that will emerge in this global future, arguing that such a canon must be less exclusive, less centralized, and more self-conscious than any predecessor. The review is particularly concerned with how the findings of the collection relate to the larger history of canon formation in the humanities. |
