X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Andrea Fraser's</strong> work\, wr
 ites Pierre Bourdieu in his foreword to Museum Highlights\, is able to "tri
 gger a social mechanism\, a sort of machine infernale whose operation cause
 s the hidden truth of social reality to reveal itself." It often does this

  its investigation of identity formation\; and Bourdieu's reflexive sociolo
