Notes
1. Although Sebastian Egenhofer addresses many of the same questions and practices as Potts, it is the paradigm of the readymade in particular that distinguishes his own monumental study, Abstraktion, Kapitalismus, Subjektivität: Die Wahrheitsfunktion des Werks in der Moderne (Munich: Wilhelm Fink, 2008), and makes it an important contribution that should be read together with the art histories of the period that Potts engages.
2. In this respect, Jaskot's book may be read productively with Peter Chametzky, Objects as History in Twentieth-Century German Art: Beckmann to Beuys (Berkeley: University of California Press, 2010).
3. On this film and the use of the dissolve in Nazi cinema, see Eric Rentschler, The Ministry of Illusion: Nazi Cinema and Its Afterlife (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1996), 158–64.
