Latour Litany of the day

Clement Greenberg with a cranky but still funny dismissal of types of contemporary art (this was in May 1968):

“a row of boxes… a mere rod… a pile of litter… projects for Cyclopean landscape architecture… the plan for a trench dug in a straight line for hundreds of miles… a half-open door… the cross-section of a mountain… stating imaginary relations between real points in real places… a blank wall, and so forth.”

I think my favorite is “a mere rod.”
