An extremely relevant essay for painters

[douchamp]

I was recommended an essay by a painting professor a while ago, and I finally got to read it over the thanksgiving holiday.  I found it extremely relevant to the current condition of painting practice and its relationship to conceptualism.

There is a whole series of video lectures by Jan Verwoert under this same title that I highly recommend...and not just for painters.
