Note du spécialiste

‘The sculpture refers to that efficiency and cleanliness of work, but the graphite is dirty... The back story to minimalism is not one of a pure and holy aura. There is a more human and dirty and flawed back story and I thought the graphite could get to that’ (A. McEwen, quoted in P. Knowles, ‘On Grace of Graphite’, in SOMA, vol. 23, no. 3, Spring 2009).
