This International Conference reappraises critical approaches to
modernist movements from European regions generally regarded as
peripheral, including Eastern and Middle Europe and the Mediterranean,
as well as from beyond Europe in both area-centred and comparative
cross-cultural frameworks. In doing so, it aims to reassess the
contributions made by these peripheral modernisms to a global
aesthetic of Modernism that accounts for its geographic variety and
cultural diversity.
