Taking a rake to the discarded leaves of contemporary culture.
détourned painting
Asger Jorn
ALL WORKS of art are objects and should be treated as such, but these objects are not ends in
themselves: They are tools with which to influence spectators. The artistic object, despite its seemingly objectlike
character, therefore presents itself as a link between two subject, the creating and provoking subject on the one hand,
and the receiving subject on the other.
the language of those in the know
Alice Becker-Ho
ONLY WITH THE CREATION of a new language did the criminals of the fifteenth century effectively
organize an independent and unified practice. The term argot (brotherhood of rogues), the name they gave to themselves,
became fused later on with their language.
