Minimalism wasn't a real idea - it ended before it started.

Also, since art is a vehicle for the transmission of ideas through form, the reproduction of the form only reinforces the concept. It is the idea that is being reproduced. Anyone who understands the work of art owns it. We all own the Mona Lisa.

I became interested in making books, starting about 1965, when I did the Serial Project #1, deciding that I needed a small book to show how the work could be understood and how the system worked.

Buying books was a way anyone could acquire a work of art for very little.

Every generation renews itself in its own way; there's always a reaction against whatever is standard.
