Eva Hesse
Use of abandoned factory materials  	cloth-covered cord 	electrical wire masonite 	latex  	fiberglass  	plastics
Eva Hesse: Chain Polymers, Fischbach Gallery,New York NY, 1968
I would like the work to be non-work. This means that it would find its way beyond my preconceptions...It is the unknown quantity from which and where I want to go. As a thing, an object, it accedes to its non-logical self. It is something, it is nothing.
…to get to non-art, non-connotive, non-anthropomorphic, non-geometric, non-nothing; everything...It's not the new, it is what is yet not known, thought, seen, touched; but really what is not and that is.
Minimalism Fascination with the  	temporary/permanent strechiness/rigidity Of latex vs fiberglass Body forms, gender
