Description: "American Modernism across the Arts expands our vision of the modernist impulse by taking the arts together. Each of the essays in this book ranges between the arts, or between the arts and other cultural manifestations: from writing to painting, photography to architecture, art to the mall, or women's work to autobiography.

Such interdisciplinarity collapses artistic compartments to bring a healthy new relevance to a study of an American modernism that is grounded in an adventurous avant-garde culture."--BOOK JACKET.
