Summary: not just homocidal aesthetics
Comment: The implications of this book and the works it discusses are grand and engrossing. While most of the work discussed does in one way or another deal with a literal 'crime', this does not limit the arguments developed from associating the 'forensic aesthetic' to our expanded post-modern reality and the way in which signification and meaning do not necessarily correspond neatly, ESPECIALLY when space is involved. The 'investigative' positivism of a passed era is elucidated in light of artworks that even today challenge our comfort with Truth, History, Memory, and Documentation, by pointing out the 'contingent' and shifting role of Evidence.
