This masochistic narcissism sexualizes our relation to the world at the same time that it eliminates the difference between the world and the ego. The project of Arts of Impoverishment, reformulated and pursued in new contexts here, was to investigate the possibility of ego-identifications (or ego-extensions, we would now be inclined to say) not reducible to a sexualizing shattering of the ego or to the sadistic project of destroying what is different from the ego.

3 But Christ will die and be buried, and will then reappear, resurrected; there is nothing in that resurrection that corresponds to the between-ness Caravaggio emphasizes. This between-ness means that Lazarus is neither dead nor alive, or that he is both. He is, in any case, not readable as either one or the other, and his unreadability is reinforced by the irreducible ambiguity of that highlighted right hand.
