3.0

Used this book a lot in my history of art dissertation, which was based around Bataille's theory of the formless but I applied it to Young British Art. You really cannot get any better than Bois and Krauss on this subject, even if at some points of this book you wonder whether even they fully understand what Bataille was talking about.

Great for referencing in historical & critical studies essays to clear up argumentation, need to remember to look back into this one come dissertation time.
