Book Synopsis
Concerned in part with the act of collecting, this work is a collection of exemplary art objects. It reveals the object as the self's ultimate other. The author weaves together philosophical and psychoanalytical theory with artistic practice. He examines what is left over - debris and waste - and asks what art can make of these.
