Notes

1. Editor's Note : Aufseherin (plural Aufseherinnen) is the German term for a female overseer in the Nazi death camps during World War II.

2. A voir la pléthore d'artistes qui nous accablent de bons sentiments, il faudrait aussi rappeler que des artistes comme Katinka Bock, Tatiana Trouvé, Gyan Panchal, François Perrodin, Julien Previeux, pour n'en citer que quelques uns, contribuent à aiguiser notre regard et notre pensée… et donc notre attention aux choses et au monde bien plus que tout ce fatras néo-sulpicien contemporain.
