232 pp. with B/W and full-colour plates. Lower corners lightly bumped and cover lightly rubbed. Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Art Gallery of York University, Toronto, Ontario from January 26 to March 26, 2006. ". a quasi-fictional correspondence with the artist Fiona Tan. It departs from interpretations of post-colonial identity issues in her work to trace the implications of the archival housing of photographs and moving images. By way of a detour through Siegfried Kracauer`s writing on photography and Jacques Derrida`s writing on the Freudian impression, we witness - right before our eyes - the disintegrative and destructive effect of photography on the archive.".
