拍品专文

“We live in boxes, see and eat with boxes, travel in boxes, and even our days and nights are boxes…I found myself making boxes. And I thought that box was as important a form as the rest of the art forms or categories. The professional scribblers were not willing to consider it as mainstream art. I stubbornly persisted in waiting for new verbal criteria to be formulated.”—Lucas Samaras
