Projected Art History highlights the narrative structure and images created in the film genre of biopics, in which the artist's life is being dramatized and embodied by an actor. Doris Berger bridges a gap between art history, film studies and popular culture by investigating how the film genre of biopics adapts written biographies and projects art history for a mass audience. Berger offers an analytical approach by concentrating on the two case studies Basquiat (1996) and Pollock (2000), but also looks at larger issues at play, such as how postwar American art history is being mediated in a popular format such as the biopic. This is the first book to identify the functionality of the biopic film genre and showcase its implication for a popular art history that is projected on the big screen"-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "Examines the biopics of two artists in order to represent and project a form of art history for a mass audience"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 500 $a Original title: Projizierte Kunstgeschichte : Mythen und Images in den Filmbiografien uÌber Jackson Pollock and Jean-Michel Basquiat.
