CAN ART HISTORY BE MADE GLOBAL?
A DISCIPLINE IN TRANSITION
The lecture introduces the efforts to bring the world into the

the implications of those intellectual moves for approaches
today which seek to “globalize” the discipline? Can we explain
why the promise of an earlier potentially cosmopolitan moment
was not realized?
