This book engages with the historical paradigm of ‘contemporary art’ by examining a programme initiated in Eastern Europe by the Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros in the 1990s. The Soros Centers for Contemporary Art played a leading role in popularising the norms and conventions of ‘contemporary art’ throughout the region. -- .
