"I thought: everything has been done already [.] Yves Klein has painted his canvas blue, Lucio Fontana has cut slashes into his. What’s left? If you want to do something, to stay alive, you have to think of something at least as radical."
Imi Knoebel in an interview with The Guardian, July 15, 2015, quoted from: www.theguardian.com

In very good condition.
