Minimalism

Question 1

Answer 1

Robert Morris, Untitled (Mirror Cube), 1965-1971

set of 4 cubes made of mirrors, reflects/deflects attempts to discover interest “in” the box- no point of focus

no meaning within the form, simply reflects world around, artfulness in concept behind- not on spiritual, emotional

like AbEx, viewer must work hard to understand (manifestos)

complete denial of representational subjects, but unlike AbEx, focus on material, denies form- dematerialization

but suffers from “objecthood” no more interesting than non-art- quickly becomes boring
