Part of what your post was, was the intentions or motivation behind it. To
assert that the email was a thing wholly unto itself is clearly false. It
exists in a context and cannot exist without the context. For example, it is
written in the English language. You cannot understand it without having
that context (the linguistic community of English speakers).

Does any artist make the context explicit? Well, yes ... Haacke, for one.
Buren has criticized Duchamp precisely on this point.
