In conceptual art the idea or concept is the most important aspect<br />
<strong>of</strong> the work…. If the artist carries through his idea and makes it into<br />
visible form, then all the steps in the process are <strong>of</strong> importance.<br />
The idea itself, even if not made visible, is as much a work <strong>of</strong> art<br />
as any finished product. All intervening steps—scribbles, sketches,<br />
<strong>drawing</strong>s, failed works, models, studies, thoughts conversations—<br />
are <strong>of</strong> interest. Those that show the thought process <strong>of</strong> the artist<br />
are sometimes more interesting than the final product.<br />
