> I was at the library this evening, just browsing (I love browsing through
> the library: so many subjects to read about). I was once again thinking of
> which Duchamp biography to read (any suggestions? I have been reading a
> string of biographies/autobiographies lately: Stanislaw Lem, Aldous Huxley,
> Nancy Cunard, Thomas Bernhard; who will be next?), and right above the
> Duchamp bios was that Oxford University Press book "Art Trends Since 1945"
> (or "Trends in Art Since 1945"?). Something compelled me to look in it,
> although I have looked in it before. Lo and behold, someone had left some
> index cards in it. One was blank, one had a sentence fragment on it, and
> the third, the third, had a 35-word definition of "Conceptual Art" scrawled
> on it. This last one I put in my pocket.

> roughly the size of an index card). I want to disqualify Ann K. because she
> finds Thomas Bernhard boring, but I possess a forgiving nature, so she may
> enter for the card.
