| Abstract: |
It examines transitions from the historicist reasoning of modernist art to iterative strategies of the "new" and the "every day" in post-war art in the 1960s, which reintroduce powerful examples of avant-garde practices (such as collage, assemblage, readymade, renewal of abstraction, constructed sculpture). The emergence of everyday life and the object in the post-war condition as expressed in different contexts. British pop art, the Fluxus movement, the Lettrists, the Situationists, and the post-war relationships between art, science, technology, popular and mass culture. The reframing in a provocative way and making radical use of the legacy of the movements of the historical avant-garde. The debate regarding historical avant-garde and neo-avant-garde, which was constituted in the refutation of the author of the seminal text "The Theory of the Avant-Garde", Peter Bürger, and the younger generation of art historians Hal Foster, Benjamin Buchloh, amongst others. Drawing on Benjamin Buchloh's study, presented how the theorist interprets the relationship between postwar art and its historical precedent. The chapter addresses the effects of this complex relationship on the shifts in contemporary art, and the importance of a situated contextual approach, a 'critical localism' in the context of a burgeoning globalized cultural industry.
