Experimental Aesthetics

  • "Against the scriptedness of an ontological anchorage, against the thought that one could define art beforehand, Duchamp proposes that we should approach each work of art as if it is the very

first work of art. That implies that the definition—and thus also the method—of the work of art is determined again and again during the artistic process. “By wiping the slate clear of habit-encrusted assumptions about ‘Art’, we would have to cook it up fresh each time,” declares Duchamp." (28)
