THIS IS NOT MERELY A PAINTING

Collection : SH / Laboratoire des sciences sociales
Release date : 15/01/2015
Drawing from an investigation into the odd reappearance in the early 1980s of several different versions of The Flight into Egypt, a famous lost painting by Nicolas Poussin, Bernard Lahire’s ambitious theoretical essay addresses art and the way the sacred is transformed in modern society.
