The author argues that the extensive inclusion of material souvenirs of Diane Arbus's art-making process and life history in her 2005 exhibition, Revelations, defines Arbus's work as verb rather than just a collection of art objects. She suggests that the power of good art is an illumination of the processes that constitute the seeking subject, and furthermore, that Arbus's work reflects the urgency of this search.
