"Mieke Bal's primary object of investigation in Quoting Caravaggio is not the great seventeenth-century painter, but rather the issue of temporality in art. In order to retheorize linear notions of influence in cultural production, Bal analyzes the productive relationship between Caravaggio and a number of late-twentieth-century artists who "quote" the baroque master in their own works.
These artists include Andres Serrano, Carrie Mae Weems, Ken Aptekar, David Reed, and Ana Mendieta, among others."--BOOK JACKET. "Quoting Caravaggio is at once a meditation on history as creative, nonlinear process; a study of the work of Caravaggio and the Baroque; and, not least, a critical exposition of contemporary artistic representation and practice."--BOOK JACKET.

First Sentence
"Let me propose Caravaggio's The Incredulity of Saint Thomas, also known as Doubting Thomas (fig. 1.1), as an emblem for the project of getting at the depth of surface, of reaching skin-deep."
