American Art in the 20th Century

Arthur pulling the sword from the stone,

Claiming his absolute right to the throne.

However, a conflict ensued on the board,

An errant knight tilting after the reward.

Chess often confined to a single direction,

But the knight will feint beyond objection.

His pure motive to slay the windmill giant,

He knows upon society we are too reliant.

Dawn of the day will free us from darkness,

Wherein we were often rendered helpless.

We individual knights will now be set free,

By not always being victims of our society.

The good we provide will be close at hand,

It will be proclaimed throughout the land.

Honorable or gracious isn’t a reach too far,

For within our sight is the unreachable star.

“Come gather around people, wherever you roam,

And admit that the waters around you have grown,

And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone,

If your time to you is worth savin‘…..

Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone,

For the times they are a-changin‘…..

Joseph Kosuth (b. 1945)

"The 'value' of particular

artists after Duchamp can

be weighed according to how

much they questioned the

nature of art.“

Sol LeWitt

(1928-2007)

In conceptual art the idea or

concept is the most important

aspect of the work. When an artist

uses a conceptual form of art, it

means that all of the planning and

decisions are made beforehand and

the execution is a perfunctory

affair. The idea becomes a machine

that makes the art.
