Terrence writes;
Art is commercial the moment you seek to engage it as "culture". ie in the culture
industry. Duchamp was revoultutionalry thinker for the arts but not necessrily a
revolutionary professional artist. He canged the art making oeuvre but for other
artists with their interpretations as "conceptual art" .
I find him interesting and somewhat important for this century but i don't feel he is
a "hero" but for conceptual artists, whose artwork, by being exhibited in a gallery,
is indeed inside a frame none-the-less. Perhaps I am prejudice as a free thinking
artist exploring the worlds of creative posibilities with the opinion that art can
indeed fall outside the gallery / institutional context with an audience of one other
person no less. A single communication with a single response.
Maybe that will make me a hero to some d-e-conceptual artists in the future
