François Morellet at DIA CHELSEA

DIA hosted a conversation between Yve-Alain Bois and Benjamin H. D. Buchloh about the work of François Morellet, currently on exhibition at their Chelsea gallery. They talked about Morellet's system-minimalism and his relationship with artists on both sides of the Atlantic including Ellsworth Kelly, Sol LeWitt, Duchamp, Cage, Mondrian, and others. Of interest were distinctions of different types of utopian projects, modernisms (specifically South American) and humor/irony in minimalism.
