    Walter Benjamin ( 1892-1940) has provided latter twentieth-century cultural criticism with many of its most heterodox and revolutionary ideas. He consistently regarded the task of reading or seeing as no purely aesthetic act, as it is always situated and part of the process by which the artefact is actually created and sustained. Works of art not only invite critique, but rather are critical acts themselves.
