Fifteen theses on contemporary art
1. Art is not the sublime descent of the infinite into the fini=

on of an infinite subjective series, through the finite means of a material=
subtraction.
2. Art cannot merely be the expression of a particularity (be i=
t ethnic or personal). Art is the impersonal production of a truth that is =
addressed to everyone.
MANIK:". Religion cannot merely be the expression of a particul=
arity (be it ethnic or personal). Good is the impersonal production of a tr=
uth that is addressed to everyone.
3. Art is the process of a truth, and this truth is always the =
