There followed an escalation in the birth of new hybrid genres like sound art, video art, graphic art and performance art and new sites and technologies for hybridity were developed: television, video projection, museums as white boxes, computers, the Internet. Some of Italy's best-known artists and groups got involved in various ways, from the Futurists, to Bruno Munari, Pier Paolo Pasolini, the Gruppo 63, Gianni Toti, Niccol? Ammaniti, and Wu Ming. Many artists we know less well often charted this in-between creative world. This book is rooted in the hypothesis that the ever-closer relations between artistic practices have been a key cultural force driving creativity since the start of the twentieth century. It attempts the first large-scale mapping of this force, providing a new framing, and along the way attempts to uncover some of the reasons behind this change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClodagh Brook is Professor in Italian at Trinity College, Dublin; Florian Mussgnug is Professor of Comparative Literature and Italian Studies at University College London;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGiuliana Pieri is Professor of Italian and the Visual Arts at Royal Holloway, London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clodagh Brook, Florian Mussgnug, Giuliana Pieri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839540885\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839540882\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Legenda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/21\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.81d","brand":"Clodagh Brook","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46372676567295,"sku":"9781839540882","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_40a13594-4a20-4c12-82a4-0b39b75c71bf.jpg?v=1732726632","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/intermedia-in-italy-clodagh-brook-9781839540882","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
