quote

From the book, Again the Metaphor Problem and Other Engaged Critical discources about Art. A conversation between John Baldessari, Liam Gillick and Lawrence Weiner, moderated by Beatrix Ruf.
pg. 12-13
Weiner:
I still believe that when you are dealing with a book, there is no essential difference between visual images and a visually drawn language image. They are the same, they both have meaning.
Baldessari:
I think we share that idea
Weiner:
There is no hierarchy
Baldessari:
I dont see any difference between the word and the image; one is exchangeable with the other.
Wiener:
They both carry history with them-sociable metaphorical meanings. All we were doing in Zouz was using different skills that we both accepted as completely equal. That made the book a possibility.
