The book analyzes the work of a diverse group of artists working in Europe, the Middle East, and North America, and takes into account the ways in which gender, race, and class can affect the cultural perception of lead. A distinguished group of international contributors from various fields, both established and early in their careers, explore lead's relevance from a number of perspectives, including art history, technical art history, art criticism and curatorial studies. Drawing on current art historical concerns with materiality, this volume builds on recent exhibitions and scholarship that reconsider the role of materials in shaping artistic meaning, thus giving a central relevance to the object and its physicality"-- CN - N8530 .L43 2021 SN - 9781350196452 SN - 1350196452 SN - 9781350196469 SN - 1350196460 SN - 9781350196476 SN - 1350196479 SN - 9781350196445 SN - 1350196444 KW - Lead in art.
