"This book relies upon the discrepancies of a medium which never produces two absolutely identical copies, the reason for which is involved in the mechanics of the machine which works by transmitting light onto sensitive paper through a marked or printed page, to produce the copies." "Seth Siegelaub, a gallery owner, began informational activities in 1968 with a series of publications directly realized by artists, such as Weiner in his publication, 'Statements', and the 'Xerox Book' which has already been described. . . "Siegelaub's activity is fundamentally in the sphere of communications behaviour on the part of the gallery and the art market. He was the first to allow complete operative and informative liberty to artists. They were no longer conditioned to produce aesthetic objects, but information and ideas. From his work a series of publications or catalogues were produced, principally by conceptual artists, such as Kosuth, Huebler, Barry, Dibbets, Weiner, N.E.Thing Co., Art and Language, Society for Theoretical Art and Analysis. The catalogues thus became a testament/document/work as in 'Douglas Huebler' (Nov. 1968), January 5 - 31, March 1969, 'Andre, Barry, Dibbets, Huebler, LeWitt, Kosuth, N.E.Thing Co., Smithson', (July - Sept. 1969).

"Art & Language [are] a group of artists who began collectively publishing their journal 'Art & Language' in the mid-1960's. Conscientiously involved in the development of non-object art they took the 'dematerialization of the art object' to the extent of introducing the idea that criticism, teaching, political science and philosophy, and in fact language itself, are forms of visualizing and subsequently that language can be considered a form of (visual) art. Their project has been to encourage a new political discourse on the (art) system of communication and a critique on the nature of the art production. '... It's our view that there's no practice which can adequately be characterized by reference to a body of objects... we're less interested in the proliferation and criticism of the theory supporting practice, i.e. a dimension of social practice...' In promoting this concept of language as art as polemics, Art & Language have succeeded in producing a theory of art which is a work of art, and it follows that a reading of their various books, pamphlets, and journals is an exercise in comprehending written language as the ultimate abstract artform.

"Baldessari the artist is the juggler or bricoleur: he patches, repositions, recontextualizes, and juxtaposes different components into a unit of opposites he finds palatable, until a glimpse of his truth emerges. Varying the original meanings of the six Grimm fairy tales according to his own insights in life, abandoning the unbearable perfection of 'living happily ever after' for an imperfect but more human condition, Baldessari set up a paradox between what is imaginary and what is real. 'The limitations of life can be stretched through fantasy, making it richer, while at the same time I bring in an element of reality, life as I understand it. And life being a continuous battle, I select the moment of the battle being waged. So you don't know the outcome, which is out of one's control anyway, when dumb chance comes along.' As early as 1972-73, Baldessari had set himself the impossible task of balancing order and chaos with Throwing Four Balls in the Air to Get a Straight Line (Best of 36 Tries) and Throwing Three Balls in the Air to Get an Equilateral Triangle (Best of 36 Tries), continuing in 1974 with Throwing Four Balls in the Air to Get a Square (Best of 36 Tries)."
