http://www.museum-ks.kiev.ua/exhibition_E_7.html

Following de Sade in his artistic expression, Roytburd "demonstrates kind of Spinozism - naturalism and mechanicalism steeped in the mathematical spirit. That endless repetition along with the renewable quantitative process that multiplies figures and sums up victims to run thousands of an infinitely lonely discourse again and again" (Gilles Deleuze) should be owed exactly to this spirit.
