    National and International Modernism in Italian Sculpture from 1935-1959 by Antje K. Gamble A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Alexander D. Potts, Chair Associate Professor Giorgio Bertellini Professor Matthew N. Biro Sharon Hecker Associate Professor Claire A. Zimmerman Associate Professor Rebecca Zurier Copyright: Antje K. Gamble, 2015 © Acknowledgements As with any large project, this dissertation could not have been completed without the support and guidance of a large number of individuals and institutions. I am glad that I have the opportunity to acknowledge them here. There were a large number of funding sources that allowed me to study, travel, and conduct primary research that I want to thank: without them, I would not have been able to do the rich archival study that has, I think, made this dissertation an important contribution to the field. For travel funding to Italy, I thank the Horace R. Rackham Graduate School at the University of Michigan for its support with the Rackham International International Research Award and the Rackham Rackham Humanities Research Fellowship. For writing support and U.S.-based research funding, I thank the Department of History of Art at the University of Michigan, the Rackham Graduate School, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the University of Michigan Museum of Art. For conference travel support, I thank the Horace R. Rackham Graduate School, the Department of History of Art, and the American Association of Italian Studies. While in Italy, I was fortunate enough to work with a great number of amazing scholars, archivists, librarians and museum staff who aided in my research efforts.
