A book on Heidegger reignites the debate over his political views

As reported in The New York Times, a soon-to-be published book in English has revived the long-running debate about whether the man can be separated from his philosophy. Heidegger's critique of Western thought and technology has penetrated deeply into architecture, psychology and literary theory and inspired some of the most influential intellectual movements of the 20th century. Yet he was also a fervent Nazi.

Coincidentally, we are releasing on Home Video on November 17th our title THE ISTER, a film that takes up some of the most challenging paths in Heidegger's thought.

Classic works are allowed to rise to their full erotic potential...

An article in the Washington Post about eroticism in art is a very relevant companion to our new release SECRET MUSEUMS. The article includes Marcel Duchamp's work at the Philadelphia Museum of Art currently in exhibition.
