The Grotesque in Western Art and Culture
The Image at Play
This book establishes a fresh and expansive view of the grotesque in Western art and culture, from 1500 to the present day. By taking a historical perspective, the book reveals the grotesque to be a complex and continuous tradition comprising several distinct strands: the ornamental, carnivalesque, traumatic and profound.
