Danish artist Asger Jorn (1914 - 1973), one of the key founders of The Cobra group, was fascinated by the philosophical debate on the position of the artist in contemporary life and the artist's relationship to the past. In 'Comparative Vandalism', Peter Shield offers the first detailed study of Jorn's revision of modern philosphy, exploring the origins and formation of his ideas.
