- TuringTest 10y agoWow, that's an insightful bit. I always try (and fail) to explain to my friends why Conceptual Art can at times advance the state of artistic inquiry, even if the material product is on itself quite unremarkable. Labeling it as "literature" may shift the frame of reference, and make people realize its value. I'll try that trick next time.
