Art, Religion and Resistance in (Post-)Communist Romania, 1st ed. 2020 Nostalgia for Paradise Lost Modernity, Memory and Identity in South-East Europe Series

Langue : Anglais

Couverture de l’ouvrage Art, Religion and Resistance in (Post-)Communist Romania
This book illuminates the interconnections between politics and religion through the lens of artistic production, exploring how art inspired by religion functioned as a form of resistance, directed against both Romanian national communism (1960-1989) and, latterly, consumerist society and its global market. It investigates the critical, tactical and subversive employments of religious motifs and themes in contemporary art pieces that confront the religious ?affair? in post-communist Romania. In doing so, it addresses a key gap in previous scholarship, which has paid little attention to the relationship between religious art and political resistance in communist Central and South-East Europe.
