An introductory essay will open each part. The corpus of works will be interspersed with focus shedding light on an artist or a theme . Short interviews with contemporary artists will close the book.

A chronology covering events related to political history, the history of science and the history of art, interspersed with numerous short quotes, will offer a complete panorama at the end of the book.
