Jaleh Mansoor

She has authored or co-authored monographic studies on artists including Piero Manzoni,[8] Ed Ruscha,[9] Agnes Martin,[10] Blinky Palermo,[11] Mona Hatoum,[12] Gerhard Richter,[13] and Florian Pumhösl.

Mansoor's first book Marshall Plan Modernism: Italian Postwar Abstraction and the Beginnings of Autonomia, was published in 2016 by Duke University Press.

[17] In Marshall Plan Modernism: Italian Postwar Abstraction and the Beginnings of Autonomia, Mansoor examines the relationship between culture and politics in the 1950s to the 1970s in Italy and theorizes on their influence to the specific branch of modernist painting and art-making that emerged during this time.

Mansoor explores this claim by examining the works of the three Italian artists Piero Manzoni, Alberto Burri, and Lucio Fontana.

[18] These artists' practises rejected the nationalist legacy introduced by Italian Futurism by exploring a more collectivist ideology while approaching art production.
