"Donald Preziosi's latest collection of essays, In the Aftermath of Art, explores multiple perspectives on the enduring foundational dilemmas of art history, art criticism, and museology. By juxtaposing issues and problems originally addressed sequentially, the collection aims to open up multiple interpretative possibilities by bringing to the surface hidden resonances in the implications of each text. It presents a model of reading, re-reading and radical re-collection inspired by the methods of Walter Benjamin in his posthumously published 'Arcades Project'."--BOOK JACKET.
