'Gesamtkunstwerk' World’s Fair. Revisioning International Exhibitions

Table of Contents

Abstract

This special issue focuses on four thematic areas, 'Gesamtkunstwerk and the Assemblage of Things', 'Technology and Art', 'Gender and Fashion', and 'Colonial Entanglements and Postcoloniality'. At the intersection of art, crafts, architecture and technology, these have so far received little attention in the discourse on world exhibitions.
