The first sketch of ‘Hirt’, a so-called mutant, was quickly out of sight when it was bought by a Swiss collector during a New York show. Later on, while making a second sketch of this mutant ‘Hirt’ Neo Rauch came up with the idea to create his Deerdog as a light object coming fully to life in the dark when switched on.


The light object itself.

Horn is best known for introducing the personal to minimalist sculpture. Horn’s photographs function somewhere between empirical record and various kinds of repetition of that record. For her, the camera is more than simply a means of transcribing the surface detail and texture of things.

The choreographer Hans van Manen proposed to have the bubbling mud sound covered by the shuffling sound of a ballet danser executing one of his dance pieces.

This is a large white paper shopping bag with a text work from March 31, 1966.

Dan Graham signed 29 copies for Art Metropole, apparently he also signed a limited number for different institutions. Nevertheless it is remarkable that this 1960’s text has been authorized again by his hand written signature on this small edition. Conceptual art created space for gigantic encompassing ideas compressed into a little text. Here a characteristic example of Conceptual art zooms in from macro to micro.
