Eclectecism


Eclectecism

"It was all so nearly alike it must be different and it is different, it is natural that if everything is used and there is a continuous present and a beginning again and again if it is all so alike it must be simply different and everything simply different was the antural way of creatiing it then" (Stein, Composition as Explanation 519)

"BENJ quote on using" 
Eclecticism in the sense of the “mid-19th-century movement in architecture and design that revived the styles of various historical periods” (Merriam-Webster Online) and which also functions as the overarching image of The Arcades Project, if not its very subject.



Connect eclecticism to surrealism?
