Artists in conversation

On Kawara
Japanese · b. 1932

On Kawara similarly used systematic serialization and numbering as a conceptual framework, creating works like his Date Paintings that share Creed's minimalist rigor and the idea that the act of cataloguing itself becomes the artistic content.

Lawrence Weiner
American · b. 1942

Weiner's conceptual practice strips art down to its most essential linguistic and structural elements, mirroring Creed's systematic minimalism and his interest in dematerialized art objects that question what a work of art fundamentally needs to be.

Hanne Darboven
German · b. 1941

Darboven created obsessive serialized and numbered systems of notation that parallel Creed's use of sequential numbering as a conceptual organizing principle, both artists treating the systematic accumulation of works as a meaningful artistic and philosophical statement.
