Publisher's Synopsis
Taking Karl Kraus's words, "origin is the goal" as a starting point, the third volume in this art criticism series examines the themes engaging art at the end of the century and addresses the question of limits. Through a synthesis of text and images, writers, artists and film-makers explore various interpretations of "ends" - of the 20th century, of art, of criticism - refuting the finitude of either time or culture, and presenting the "game" as elliptical.
