Note
  • "'Arguments'...is a slim, perfect-bound volume consisting of 25 sections, or "arguments," each exploring social relationships through the visual arrangement of names across the pages. While the visual and temporal arrangement of names gives little narrative information in comparison to a literary, descriptive text, the reader can interpret a complex range of social relationships from Carrión's minimal composition...'Arguments' and other bookworks also shift the emphasis from the author's subjectivity to the interpretive function of the reader." -- Sarah E. Hamerman, "Beyond Bookworks: Ulises Carrión's Cultural Strategies", A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (History of Art and Design), School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Pratt Institute, May 2017, page 7.
