Collection: Conceptual Art Ephemera

From the mid-1960s, conceptual artists made the idea the work, and often made printed matter part of it: an invitation, a catalogue or a certificate could carry the piece itself. What was printed for these shows is often the closest thing to the work that survives. The New Rare holds that printed record and its after-lives, from Lawrence Weiner, Joseph Kosuth and Art & Language to Philippe Thomas and Jenny Holzer, each catalogued with its own register number and condition.
