I was 22 when I read this. I'd already been a 'conceptual artist' for at least the preceding 6 yrs w/o, probably, being aware that such a mvmt even existed. This was the 1st bk I read on the subject & I was very excited. The stark cutting thru of normal ways of doing things was extremely refreshing. The simplicity of Daniel Buren's using only striped paintings - but trying to present them in as many different lights as possible - such as as sandwich boards - was a stunning departure from most painting I was aware of. Hans Haacke's "Proposal Poll of MOMA Visitors" where he makes transparent the unpopularity of American Indochina policy is potent. Jan Dibbets' "Perspective Correction" where he cuts out a piece of turf so that when looked at from the correct angle it appears to be a square sticking up out of the ground is simple but in a way that few people wd think of - & it harkens back to anamorphic tricks of older painting. All in all, getting away from object production & toward perceptual paradigm production is of great importance to me & this bk was a milestone in that direction (even though it's an object, eh?!).… (mere)
