  2. Elimination of composition, theme, and other elements of traditional work. The medium and materials of the work are its reality The materials were not intended to symbolize anything else. Color was not used to express feeling or mood, but it simply to delineate space. Viewer’s response only in terms of the relationship between the various elements of the work. Viewer’s personal reaction to the object was of higher importance than the artist’s emotions Art should not reflect the personal expression of its creator Eliminate the presence of the creator in their work

  13. Sol Lewitt Conceptual art "In conceptual art, the idea or concept is the most important aspect of the work. When an artist uses a conceptual form of art, it means that all planning and decisions are made beforehand. The execution is a perfunctory affair. The idea becomes the machine that makes the art." Critics say of his work that it is: austere, simple, stark, unemotional, serial, minimal, conceptual, architectural, modular, systematic, ...stunningly beautiful. Question: Who is the artist when someone comes up with an idea for a work of art but has others make or construct it? Must an artist create a work with his/her own hand to produce a valid work of art?
