"The wide-ranging and meticulously researched essays in Mapping Modernisms focus on indigenous artists from Inuit, Zulu, Maori, Pueblo, and Aboriginal cultures, among others, around the world. . . . What emerges from Mapping Modernisms is that Modernism was not a process of diffusion from Western centers to non-Western peripheries, as it is traditionally constructed in Western narratives, but rather a complex web of mutual in??uences and exchanges across the globe." — Naomi Polonsky, Hyperallergic
"Mapping Modernisms is an excellent addition to any collection exploring the history of modernity and the decolonisation of modern art histories, and proposes a new conceptualization of modernity that would benefit any collection looking to re-examine its role in post-colonialism." — Marianne R. Williams, ARLIS/NA Reviews
"Mapping Modernisms is a concise and carefully compiled selection of essays and art works from across historical and geographical spectrums, which challenge the relationship between postcolonialism and metahistorical concepts of modernity." — Natalie Ilsley, Visual Studies
"Dispelling assumptions of the past, the authors reveal the artist to be as cognizant of the exigencies of their complicated histories and lives, as they are in command of their expressive forms. Mapping Modernism sheds much needed light onto the artistic production of modernist artists living in post- and neocolonial countries in the early twentieth century." — Cécile Rose Ganteaume, Transmotion
“Mapping Modernisms offers a rich set of essays by significant figures and rising scholars in their field. Recognizing the complexity of the relationship between individual identity, practice, and cultural and historical processes, the editors have produced an excellent and rewarding volume.” — Howard Morphy, author of Aboriginal Art
"This rigorous and intelligent volume makes a major contribution, bringing into visibility a large spectrum of formerly marginalized aesthetic practices and subjectivities in art history's narratives of twentieth-century modernism." — Saloni Mathur, author of The Migrant’s Time: Rethinking Art History and Diaspora
