Curating Fascism examines how exhibitions from around the fall of Benito Mussolini's regime to the present day have shaped collective memory, historical narratives, and political discourse around the Italian ventennio. It explores representations of Italian fascism in exhibitions across the world, highlights blindspots in art history and exhibition practices, and charts how shows on fascism have evolved since the postwar period. Through offering fresh perspectives on the historiography, collective memory, and understanding of Italian fascist art from a contemporary standpoint, Curating Fascism critically reflects upon curatorial strategies and sheds light on the cultural legacy of fascism in the current moment.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
