This wouldn't be the first time artists taking credit to do one thing while actually doing something else. After all the truth is probably way too boring for it

This wouldn't be the first time artists taking credit to do one thing while actually doing something else.
After all the truth is probably way too boring for it to be considered art.
- cmyr 11y agoThis is a reality of conceptual art. The _art_, in this context, resides in the implicit criticism the artists are making about the ownership of antiquities. The actual objects/files/documentation involved is more akin to the artist's materials. Something that is still poorly understood in the broader world is that a huge proportion of contemporary art isn't about making things, but about exploring and expressing ideas.
