Catalogue Note

Détail du certificat d'authenticité de One and three plants, 1965.

Si nous continuons à considérer les formes artistiques comme étant le langage de l'art, nous comprendrons alors qu'une oeuvre d'art est en quelque sorte une proposition avancée dans le contexte artistique en tant que commentaire sur l'art.
Jospeh Kosuth, Art after philosophy, in Studio international, octobre 1969
