Gonzalez Torres Interview
In an interview from 1995 with Robert Storr, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, said, "After doing all these shows, I’ve become burnt out with trying to have some kind of personal presence in the work. Because I’m not my art. It’s not the form and not the shape, not the way these things function that’s being put into question. What is being put into question is me."
After looking at "Untitled (For Jeff)," what is your response to what Gonzalez-Torres revealed in his interview?
