Duchamp – readymades: anti-art Painting is "washed up," Duchamp said in Fountain, 1917

Duchamp – readymades: anti-art One important characteristic was the short sentence which I occasionally inscribed on the "Readymade." That sentence instead of describing the object like a title was meant to carry the mind of the spectator towards other regions more verbal In Advance of a Broken Arm, 1915 Surrealism

The only thing that is not art is inattention. – Duchamp A new difficulty: ONTOLOGICAL – Is it art? Why? Magritte The Treason of Images 1928

ABSTRACTION

definition Abstract –– considered apart from concrete existence; the genre of painting whose intellectual and affective content depends solely on intrinsic form (Amer Heritage Dict.) Roots of the term: removed from (concrete reality); to pull away from

definition Abstract art –– art which is either completely non-representational, or which converts forms observed in reality into patterns which are read by the spectator primarily as independent relationships, rather than with reference to the original source. Thames & Hudson Dictionary of Art Terms

Mondrian

Mondrian – 1940s

The Cubists retained the three-dimensional space... their way of seeing remains deeply materialistic; my thinking on abstraction, on the other hand, rests on the belief that such a space must be destroyed; to achieve the destruction of the object I have reached the point of using surfaces. -- Mondrian Objective: Destroy the Object

Why? A universal language We want concrete not abstract painting, for nothing is more concrete, more real than a line, a color, a surface. Once they are liberated... they are on their way towards the real goal of art: to create a universal language. -- Theo Van Doesburg
