This collection represents a tool to broaden and deepen our geographical, institutional, and historical understanding of the term totalitarianism. Is totalitarianism only found in 'other' societies? How come, then, it emerged historically in 'ours' first? How come it developed in so many countries either in Western Europe (Italy, Germany, Portugal, and Spain) or under implicit Western forms of coercion (Latin America)? How do relations between individual(s), mass and the visual arts relate to totalitarian trends? These are among the questions this book asks about totalitarianism.The volume does not impose a 'one size fits all' interpretation, but opens new spaces for debate on the connection between the visual arts and mass-culture in totalitarian societies. From the Mediterranean to Scandinavia, from Western Europe to Latin America, from the fascism of the early 20th century to contemporary forms of totalitarian control, and from cinema to architecture, the chapters included in TotArt bring expertise, historical sensibility and political awareness to bear on this varied range of phenomena.This collection offers international contributions on visual, performing and plastic arts. The chapters range from examination of comics to study of YouTube videos and American newsreels, from Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Uruguayan cinemas to more contemporary American films and TV series, from painters and sculptors to the study of urban spaces.

"This book introduces a compelling new personality to the modernist canon, Marisa Mori (1900-1985), who became the only female contributor to The Futurist Cookbook (1932) with her recipe for "Italian Breasts in the Sun." Providing something more complex than a traditional biographical account, Griffiths presents a feminist critique of Mori's art, converging on issues of gender, culture, and history to offer new critical perspectives on Italian modernism. If subsequently written out of modernist memory, Mori was once at the center of the Futurism movement in Italy; yet she worked outside the major European capitals and fluctuated between traditional figurative subjects and abstract experimentation. As a result, her in-between pictures can help to re-think the margins of modernism. By situating Mori's most significant artworks in the critical context of interwar Fascism, and highlighting her artistic contributions before, during, and after her Futurist decade, Griffiths contributes to a growing body of knowledge on the women who participated in the Italian Futurist movement. In doing so, she explores a woman artist's struggle for modernity among the Italian Futurists in an age of Fascism."--Provided by publisher.

"Modernism both influenced and was fascinated by the rhetorical and aesthetic manifestations of fascism. In examining how four artists and writers represented fascist leaders, Annalisa Zox-Weaver aims to achieve a more complex understanding of the modernist political imagination. She examines how photographer Lee Miller, filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl, writer Gertrude Stein and journalist Janet Flanner interpret, dramatize and exploit Hitler, Goring and Petain. Within their own artistic medium, each of these modernists explore confrontations between private and public identity, and historical narrative and the construction of myth. This study makes use of extensive archival material, such as letters, photographs, journals, unpublished manuscripts and ephemera and includes ten illustrations. This interdisciplinary perspective opens up wider discussions of the relationship between artists and dictators, modernism and fascism, and authority and representation"--

"Curating fascism" examines how art exhibitions have retrospectively shaped collective memory, historical narratives, and political discourse about the fascist regime in Italy. The volume explores how curatorial methods can rethink the typically excluded or marginalized issues of gender, race, and sexual orientation, considering thoughtful ways to include the often-tragic plight of Jews, women, LGBTQs, and victims of colonialism under fascism, as well as antifascist voices of restistance. By interweaving historical perspectives, critical theory, and direct accounts of exhibitions from the people who xconceived them or responded to them, the book presents an innovative transdisciplinary approach to the field of exhibition history. A century on from its ascent to power, "Curating fascism" unpicks the legacy of the Mussolini regime by offering fresh new perspectives on the historiography, collective memory, and understanding of fascist art and culture from a contemporary standpoint.

Y eut-il, entre 1919 et 1939, un fascisme proprement français ? Oui, contrairement à ce qu’affirme depuis longtemps l’historiographie française. La base de ce fascisme était-elle idéologique ? Non, affirme Michel Lacroix : elle était d’abord esthétique. Son ouvrage vise à montrer que tout du fascisme naît de l’esthétique ou y aboutit. Les discours, les pratiques symboliques et les textes littéraires ne cessent de le répéter : « Qui dit fascisme dit avant tout beauté » (Benito Mussolini). Qu’est-ce qu’un chef ou un héros pour les artistes fascistes ? Quelles valeurs cherchent-ils à promouvoir chez les jeunes en Allemagne, en Italie et en France ? À quel spectacle politique consacrent-ils leurs efforts ? Voilà les trois principales questions auxquelles répond Michel Lacroix. Pour y arriver, il est allé relire Drieu la Rochelle et Céline, mais il s’est aussi intéressé au scoutisme et à l’olympisme, à la sculpture comme au cinéma. C’est ce qui lui a permis de comprendre les rapports troubles du pathos, de l’exhibition, du sublime, de la violence et de la mort dans le fascisme français de l’entre-deux-guerres.

Bringing together studies by art historians, historians, and political scientists, Fascist Visions explores the themes and paradigms that pervaded protofascist and fascist aesthetic discourse, cultural policy, and artistic production in France and Italy. Whether traditionalist or innovative in idiom, art functioned as the expression of fascism’s ideological polarities: nihilism and idealism, modernism and antimodernism, revolution and reaction. This volume charts the unfolding of fascist aesthetics from its genesis in nationalist and antimaterialist ideologies before World War I to its full development during the interwar period and World War II. It also highlights the shared motivations of advocates of fascist aesthetics, including artists, art critics, political activists, and government officials, outside of Germany. The eight essays in this book investigate the intersection of fascist ideology and aesthetics through a wide range of historical examples. Topics include: theories of cultural regeneration in Italy from the Risorgimento to fascism; the impact of fascism upon the work of such artists and art critics as Ardengo Soffici, Mario Sironi, Valentine de Saint-Point, and Waldemar George; the theories of modernist urbanism developed by Georges Valois’s Faisceau; and official sponsorship of painting and the decorative arts in Mussolini’s Italy and in Vichy France. The contributors to this volume include Walter Adamson, Matthew Affron, Mark Antliff, Emily Braun, Michèle Cone, Emilio Gentile, Nancy Locke, and Marla Stone.
