XEROX Book

Curator: Seth Seigelaub

How: Created a catalogue / book, which was the exhibition itself. The aim was to highlight the importance of documentation. “Conceptual art was a way to literally document their immaterial and ephemeral artworks.

The Xerox Book, included the works of seven artists: Carl Andre, Robert Barry, Douglas Huebler, Joseph Kosuth, Sol LeWitt, Robert Morris, and Lawrence Weiner.


Where: New York, 1968
The book is the object, "I believe that the answer lies not in the whole publication, but in the individual artist’s contributions. It is through the narrative of the work, in which artists used 25 sheets to express an idea, and in its sequential, time, and space narratives that we are able not only to separate the commodification but to analyse it through those frameworks."
