Pop Art and Beyond: Gender Race and Class in the Global Sixties is the perfect response to today's urgent calling for ever more credible art histories that center recognition of artists and practices that have tended to be erased or downplayed within the dominant canon. The range of texts in the volume will prove indispensable in further building on scholarship that unsettles and challenges stale, hegemonic readings of Pop Art. As such, this book makes an invaluable contribution to art history and decisively signals the direction of progressive academic study. The global reach of this volume, together with the erudition of its contributors, ensure that scholars now have access to new, rigorous, and persuasive research into important aspects of modern art.

This book is a brilliant and important corrective to much writing on Pop art. It offers an urgent analysis and expansion of the material, geographic, and political framing of Pop art. Each of the fifteen original and exhaustively researched chapters shed important new and critical light on the raced, gendered, and classed aspects of Pop art and its artists.
