Ensemble: Objects
« Les artistes travaillent aujourd’hui avec ce que l’on appelle des méthodes conceptuelles et n’utilisent soi-disant plus d’objets. Mais on ne peut pas ne pas employer d’objets. Un écran de télévision est un objet, un mur de projection est un mur sur lequel sont projetées des images – c’est assurément un objet. Je vois encore de la toile tendue et j’aime voir de la toile tendue. Je ne vois pas la peinture en perspective, je ne crois pas que cela ressemble à la réalité, que sa perspective copie la nature. Je ne crois pas que la nature ait été déplacée ; je crois que c’est la peinture sur toile qui applique une certaine astuce appelée la perspective. Ce n’est qu’une astuce. » [texte intégral [ici](http://ensembles.mhka.be/items/3194)]
