Thierry de Duve: Sewn in the Sweatshops of Marx: Beuys, Warhol, Klein, Duchamp
Translated by Rosalind E. Krauss
SIGNED BY THIERRY DE DUVE
Joseph Beuys, Andy Warhol, Yves Klein, and Marcel Duchamp form an unlikely quartet, but they each played a singular role in shaping a new avant-garde for the 1960s and beyond. Each of them staged brash, even shocking, events and produced works that challenged the way the mainstream art world operated and thought about itself. Distinguished philosopher Thierry de Duve binds these artists through another connection: the mapping of the aesthetic field onto political economy.
