With the rise of Abstract Expressionism, New York City became the acknowledged center of the avant-garde. Diana Crane documents the transformation of the New York art world between 1940 and 1985, both in the artistic styles that emerged during this period and the expansion of the number and types of institutions that purchased and displayed various works.
About the Author:
Diana Crane is professor of sociology at the University of Pennsylvania. She is the author of Invisible Colleges: Diffusion of Knowledge in Scientific Communities, also published by the University of Chicago Press, and of The Sanctity of Social Life: Physicians' Treatment of Critically Ill Patients.
