Description
The relationship between art and theory is explored in this collection of research notes for an exhibition. Victor Burgin's work offers a unique dialogue with Roland Barthes' ideas, highlighting the tension between practice and theory. This book brings to the fore Barthes' own practice as a painter and drawer, providing new insights into his critical approach to art. Two new interviews with Burgin are included, examining his recent digital practices and his reading of Barthes. The collection also features images and texts from both artists, alongside an essay that critically examines Barthes' exercises in drawing and painting. A valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike, this book offers a fresh perspective on the intersection of art, theory, and criticism.
