A groundbreaking book that challenges the traditional narrative of modern art history

In How Jews Made the Art World Modern, acclaimed art historian Vivian B. Mann challenges the traditional narrative of modern art history, which has long marginalized the contributions of Jewish artists, dealers, and collectors. Drawing on extensive archival research and interviews, Mann reveals the pivotal role that Jews played in shaping the development of modern art, from its avant-garde beginnings to its establishment as a global phenomenon.

Mann argues that Jewish artists, dealers, and collectors were not simply passive participants in the art world, but rather active agents who helped to shape its direction. They played a key role in the development of new artistic styles, the establishment of new art markets, and the dissemination of modern art around the world. In ng so, they helped to create the modern art world as we know it today.
