In this curious collection of stories, Martina Domonkos writes about artworks that cannot be framed or hung on a wall. We meet the rebellious John Latham, who eats an entire book simply out of hatred for the author. Marina Abramovic and her great love Ulay, walk toward each other on the Great Wall of China, only to realise that their passion died along the way. Joseph Beuys locks himself in a gallery with a wild coyote, and Piero Manzoni rebels against his strict father by pooing into tin cans. Domonkos presents 20 conceptual art works that spark conversations and offer perspectives on the intersection of life, love, humanity and art. Each tale is accompanied by an informative biography of the work and its artist. This book is fantastic! I've never read anything like it. The stories are well-written, universal, thought-provoking, educational, and completely unique. They make conceptual art fun, accessible and playful. – Sinziana Ravini, Author
