It's pretty much where we expect to find it, in its little terrain vague, squarely where it belongs. Just so that you don't think Duchamp's gesture was a lesson in appreciating the previously unrecognized form of a toilet. That would be reading the object against the meaning that Duchamp supplied, which was a social/idea gesture, not an aesthetic gesture.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-42992447841192444572007-04-28T00:47:00.000+02:002007-04-28T00:47:00.000+02:00Ahhh Olive, I lived for students like yourself!!! ...Ahhh Olive, I lived for students like yourself!!!
