The concept of the “work of art†is paradoxically both widely used and often unexamined. This book re-evaluates the scope of “work,†“art,†and “the aesthetic†from the viewpoint of deconstructionist philosophy and suggests that Derrida’s analyses resolve some central questions in the discourses of contemporary visual arts.
