Leading authorities explore the transition from the High Victorian period to the counterculture of the 1960s and the Young British Artists of the 1990s. The book brings to the fore Britain’s complex role as a focus for the dissemination of modernist ideas, as well as the reaction against them, and details the political, social, and commercial relationships underpinning the role of art and artists in the history of modern Britain.

Yale Center for British Art

The standing of the Yale Center for British Art as one of the world's great museums and study centers finds expression in its remarkable building, designed by Louis I. Kahn (1901–1974). In this important and innovative volume, two architects offer a plan to ensure the proper stewardship of the building in order to preserve its essence as a great architectural structure. Peter Inskip and Stephen Gee describe the design, construction, and subsequent renovation of the building; assess its cultural significance; analyze the materials that comprise it (steel, concrete, glass, white oak, and travertine); and shed light on its evolution over the four decades since it was built. Drawing on their extensive experience developing conservation plans for both historic sites and modern buildings, they propse a series of policies for the Center's conservation into the future.
