The Truth in Painting Paperback
by Jacques Derrida
Paperback
- Information
Description
"The four essays in this volume constitute Derrida's most explicit and sustained reflection on the art work as pictorial artifact, a reflection partly by way of philosophical aesthetics (Kant, Heidegger), partly by way of a commentary on art works and art scholarship (Van Gogh, Adami, Titus-Carmel).
The illustrations are excellent, and the translators, who clearly see their work as both a rendering and a transformation, add yet another dimension to this richly layered composition.
Indispensable to collections emphasizing art criticism and aesthetics."--Alexander Gelley, Library Journal
