Histories of art

From what I understand from these texts serra and Steinberg both had different interests within art but they both talk about there interests and development within the process over a period of time. “from other criteria” Steinberg talks about the development and process of art. Steinberg seems to be more openminded and talks about how the placement of art doesn’t count, he also focuses on how other artists such as Duchamp shaped the expressionist movement.
“from the yale lecture” Richard serra talks about how he built site specific work which is different to how Steinberg says that the placement of art is not important he goes to say that “there is no law against hanging a rug on a wall, or reproducing a narrative picture as a mosaic floor” he believes that the more important thing is the art not how it is shown or represented within a space.
