The Challenge of the Avant-garde by Paul Wood
This volume traces the challenge posed to the academic canon by the emergent avant-garde of the early and mid-19th century. It considers the shifts in its development through the later 19th and 20th century and its eventual incorporation as a form of modern canon by the eve of World War II.
Wood, Paul: - Paul Wood is a constant explorer of London and the irrepressible, boisterous nature it supports. He is the author of two previous books: 'London is a Forest' and, published in 2017, 'London's Street Trees: a Field Guide to the Urban Forest', the first book on the city's frontline trees.
