The frustrating thing about the October circle is how they often do not manage to connect the theorizing (which I find sympathetic) with a viewing/experience of the work . . . and the Goux readings here seem almost like a parody of that. But still, while I’m skimming over a lot of the pages, this book makes me excited about Picabia’s works, which clearly can absorb such readings and still have some impact left for the more lay-minded viewer.
