Derrida’s The Truth in Painting
 

Derrida’s The Truth in Painting
 
"deconstructs aesthetics through the metaphor of the decorative frame"
 
Glenn Adamson: "If ever there was a book about art which should belong to design history more than art history, The Truth in Painting would be it, yet while it is a staple of art history courses it does not seem to be a foundation stone for our discipline."
