An interview with the legendary conceptual artist Lawrence Weiner about the connection between cruelty, hierarchy and rationality. The artist must ask questions past ordinary logic, he says. In this interview Weiner philosophizes on how the artist can present things people might not have noticed. Art is not meant to answer questions, but rather to ask them. Art is about things you don't know. The artist must go beyond logic and risk madness, he explains: "You have to re-adapt your own logic just to be able to communicate with somebody else." American artist Lawrence Weiner (b.1942) is regarded as a founding figure of Postminimalism's Conceptual arm in the 1960s. His work often takes the form of typographic texts. He lives and works in New York. Lawrence Weiner was interviewed by Jesper Bundgaard.
