Don’t consider conceptual art as ‘art? Do you think ‘you can do this yourself’? Do you feel conceptual art is empty and cold?
If you answer one of those questions with yes, you should go and see Joseph Kosuth’s impressive show to turn your knowledge to the better as this is the most beautifully curated small-scale show of any conceptual artist in London ever (ok, to be honest I only know about the last four years, but still:-)
You will see his history making dictionary blow-ups from the 1960s, wall-filling neon tube installations and a ginormeous article print about the Lorena Bobbit cut-his-penise story.
Sprueth Magers Lee is an institution in the art world which I know from Cologne back then. And if you have any questions, please ask the nice woman behind the desk. If she is not on the phone she is actually up for a quick chat about the show and the art wolrd and does not give you that creepy feeling that she snobbishly looks down on you - as so many unfortunately.
until 13 April, 12 Berkeley Street, W1J 8DT
