Any work may be read, and there are many ways to read a work. This does not imply that all possible readings may be applied to every work, nor that every reading may be applied to all works. Neither does it mean that the act of interpretation has lost its value. Rather it announces the disintegration of critical typologies, a breakdown in the conventions that separate kinds of interpretation. As the contemporary arts can no longer be organized and identified by Aristotelian categories, so the interpretations brought to bear on them can no longer be distributed among the various types of discourse which have been used to speak in the past. Each of these types has come to be seen not only as a discipline but also as a deficiency: art history, art criticism, aesthetics, the philosophy of art, not to exclude from the field our homines novi: the politician of the Left, the semiotician, the psychoanalyst
