    About the Book

    Edit

    Without a doubt, Mark Vinci is one of the great painters of the American
    sublime. Or to be a bit more succinct, his work comes after and comments
    on the long history of artists who have trafficked in ideas that are related to
    sublimity and national identity. But of course, these definitions are not a given, which is
    where Vinci’s art helps us to recalibrate how these ideas intersect, collide and push off
    of one another over the course of the last few decades, and even the last few centuries.
    Toward this end, we can say that Vinci’s art practice provides us with a window onto
    three distinct mutations in what the sublime means with regard to our changing notions
    of “Americanness”. The best way to understand these shifts, beyond assessing a series of
    theoretical departures in Vinci’s own practice as an artist, is by situating these moments
    alongside the three major definitions of the sublime provided for by Immanuel Kant,
    Edmund Burke and Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe.
