A quote from André Questcequecest:
The lust for authenticity is the ideological product of the art market’s hidden persuaders; when the replica of a sculpture is absolutely perfect, to privilege the original is like giving more importance to the first numbered copy of a poem than to a normal pocket edition.
Umberto Eco, A Theory of Semiotics, (Bloomington Indiana: Indiana University Press, 1979), p. 179.
A Fragment from the minutes of the Executive Council:
Our concepts are not as connected as we like to think they are, it’s more like a collage. Intentions are possibly the glue, and it may be as Schopenhauer said, self interest is the strongest argument.
