Manzoni's work makes almost no sense as a stand-alone concept. Manzoni was keenly aware of the power of irony in the post-modern sense, right down to his death which closely followed that of Yves Klein. You can look it up.

Almost?
Perhaps he was aware that he had the power to make people, including prestigious art museums, look incredibly foolish and used it to full advantage? That would explain Artist's shit. KarlM (talk) 08:21, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
