//txt: When artists collaborate - The Third Hand: Collaboration in Art from Conceptualism to Postmodernism. Charles Green

from a review:
"[Green] attempts to construct a new "model of authorship" that involves a "third artist," a phantom figure allegedly generated when artists set about working jointly"

quo:
"The working method of collaboration implies an ideological downplaying of the role of imagination as it is usually conceived: as the expression of individual subjectivity.
Memory, on the other hand, makes things relative: It gives perspective and has therefore been considered ethical in itself because it relativizes the individual, self-centered subjectivity that is a poor guide to how to act."
[ p.97]
