Stephen Melville is one of the most thoughtful critics to emerge in
recent years. He has applied the tools developed by Jacques Derrida
and Jacques Lacan to the problems of contemporary art. With his
roots in Kant, Hegel and Heidegger, he reopens questions of art's
reception, interpretation and commentary. He demonstrates how the
territory of each of these discourses is maintained by their
relationship to one another. Melville's texts not only represent
the complexity of his subject, but also the intricate interface
between the art object, history and philosophical interpretation.
Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe brings to Melville's work the insight not only
of an art critic and theorist, but of a practicing artist as well.
Navigating the complexity of contemporary thought and philosophy,
Gilbert-Rolfe unravels the Gordian knot of the diverse discourses
that circumscribe Melville's views, revealing the practicality and
clarity of Melville's speculative narratives.
