Belle Haleine, Eau de Voilette
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"Painting has not always existed; we can determine when it began. And if its development and its moments of greatness can be drummed into our heads, can we not then also imagine its periods of decline and even its end, like any other idea?"-- Challenge to Painting (1930) by Louis Aragon, epigraph in "The End of Painting" (1981) by Douglas Crimp |
