Paperback. Etat : Fair. English summary: Neo-classicism is often misunderstood as a cold, pedantic, even bombastic artistic movement. The present volume seeks to rehabilitate Neo-classicism, explaining its esthetic, philosophical, and political implications, through the example of both famous and little-known artists from across Europe. French description: De tous les courants artistiques europeens, le neo-classicisme est sans doute celui sur lequel s'accumule le plus grand nombre de malentendus. Heureusement, depuis une trentaine d'annees, en France et a l'etranger, de nombreuses expositions ont ete consacrees a ce mouvement ou a ses plus grands heros. Malgre tout, les cliches ont la vie dure, selon lesquels le neo-classicisme serait un compose de froideur et de pedanterie, un art litteraire et grandiloquent.
