Abstract
A response to Partha Mitter's article “Decentering Modernism: Art History and Avent-Garde from the Periphery,” also published in this issue. Mitter's proposes a “truly global” art history that confronts the discipline's persistent Eurocentrism. His decentered vision leaves room for further expansion, but it has far-reaching implications for art history's pedagogy and curricular structure. It has yet to be seen how prepared the field of modern art history is for the transformations entailed by Mitter's proposal. Any lack of preparedness, however, should not prevent art historians from embracing and understanding in greater detail Mitter's ambitious endeavor of “belonging to modernism.”
