Based on the papers presented at an international conference at the Freie Universität Berlin in 2013, the publication focuses on problems and challenges of art history’s epistemic frameworks. Following four guiding themes – narrations, venues, concepts and practice – the contributions address the aspect of mobility of aesthetic objects and their contextualisation from different analytical perspectives. The essays examine complex processes of transcultural negotiations that are set in motion by »travelling« objects, artists, ideas and institutions in order to trace and analyse historical conditions that generated specific frameworks with their respective art historical narratives and artistic production.
"This volume gathers together fourteen essays originally presented at the conference 'Questioning Narratives, Negotiating Frameworks. Art/Histories in Transcultural Dynamics, Late 19th to Early 21st Centuries,' which was held from 5 to 7 December 2013 at the Department of Art History at Freie Universität Berlin, and at the Ethnologisches Museum and Museum für Kunst in Berlin."--p.[7]
