In other words, one must act to shatter the rigid lattice of categories that words impose upon us. Although the accompanying jargon is fashionable (or was a few years ago), it is essentially a portentous recycling of the idea behind Marcel Duchamp's 1917 urinal, which became a "Fountain" when he declared it so.


Dumb sh*ts.

These people have failed to grasp or discover that the task is to transcend the 'rigid lattice of categories that words impose upon us', not 'shatter' them. Shattering in their sense is not an act of creation and is therefore not art in my book.
