Title: Out looking in
Description: "Jan Cavanaugh's study locates Polish artists at the core of one of the primary turn-of-the-century modernist movements, the Central European Secession movement. Ten of the original fifty members of the Vienna Secession were Poles; they and other Polish artists participated actively in secessionist exhibitions while also forming their own group, which exhibited throughout Europe. At the same time, many of these artists were deeply involved in the struggle for their country's independence.".

"Out Looking In is the first comprehensive study in English of this significant period in Polish art. In addressing issues of national identity and consciousness, Cavanaugh essentially revises our understanding of European modernism and demonstrates art history's role in reflecting broad cultural changes."--BOOK JACKET.
