| Description: |
Issue 26 of "Res" presents studies from distant fields that relate to each other by addressing an underlying and historical theme, that of "performative reconstruction". This theme appears throughout the issue under various guises. |
| Synopsis: |
Several articles explore the study of objects where philosophy and anthropology intersect. They cover monuments, icons, the related significance of blood sacrifice and monetary debt in Colonial Africa, etc. A second group covers the development of modern Western representation during a critical period of art history. |
