Art is really and truly a very social activity. Somebody comes along and turns something that before existed, but not as an object, into an object, and that allows the society, which is institutional or personal, by accepting responsibility, to take that thing and put it within the composite of their life. (Lawrence Weiner)

The conversation between Lawrence Weiner and Vitus Weh was published on DVD in Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König in 2017. See purchase details!
