The multiple triangular forms in Points of View (2009) are interspersed a text about three people who disagree about the interpretation of an artwork. The viewer, who is both a spectator to this argument and reader of the work, is neither required to take a position nor excluded from doing so; refracted in the narrative space of the disagreement, the objects under his or her eye become subjects of a particular ‘point of view.’ As Merlau-Ponty notes, “The invisible, the idea, is not the contrary of the visible, it is the invisible of the visible.”

/Joanna Fiduccia
