The Reification of the World: Poetry and Conquest in Marcel Broodthaers's Maps
Collective Reception: Essays in Honor of Benjamin H. D. Buchloh
on the occasion of his retirement from teaching.We titled the event and this group of texts "Collective Reception" with a nod to the persistence of Walter Benjamin's concept of "simultaneous collective reception" in Buchloh's work, which cuts across his reflections on the historical conditions of aesthetic perception.In convening multiple generations of Buchloh's former doctoral students to present new scholarship, we hoped that the symposium wou…
Broodthaers's Debt
This essay investigates the status of "reification" in the work of Marcel Broodthaers, particularly in the 1971 "Section Financière" of his Musée d'Art Moderne, Départment des Aigles. It will pose finance and debt as social forms through which Broodthaers both experienced reification concretely and attempted to register its forming pressure upon the artwork's conditions of possibility. The article argues that it was Broodthaers's understanding of…
Lawrence Weiner's Materialism
From the 1960s until his death in 2021, Lawrence Weiner developed an art practice operating in language, which he described as being that of a "materialist." This paper examines the scope of Weiner's career to determine what he could mean by that term-to derive the specific characteristics of his linguistic materialism. Differentiating his work from existing materialist paradigms in poetics and linguistics, this paper argues that the matter of la…

Buchloh, Rachel Haidu, Rosalind Krauss, and Trevor Stark for a conversation on Broodthaers's work, his artistic development, and his reception.…
Complexio Oppositorum: Hugo Ball and Carl Schmitt
On November 22, 1923, Emmy Hennings received an ecstatic letter from Hugo Ball, her husband and fellow founder of Zurich Dada, describing his "constant immersion in jurisprudence": For months, I have studied the writings of Professor Schmitt, of Bonn. He is more important for Germany than the entirety of the Rhineland, with its carbon mines included. Rarely have I read a philosophy with as much passion as his, and a philosophy of law at that! A g…
Cinema in the Hands of the People: Chris Marker, the Medvedkin Group, and the Potential of Militant Film
This paper developed out of a seminar on postwar European art, directed by Benjamin Buchloh at Harvard University in 2010. I owe my foremost thanks to Buchloh, who supported this project from its inception, and to Malcolm Turvey, for his invaluable editorial critique. Thanks are also due to Maria Gough, my colleagues in the seminar, ISKRA, the Harvard Film Archives, and, for their generous advice on early drafts, Samuel Johnson, Kevin Lotery, and…
