Anyone who has imbibed in the fermented fruits of Ubuweb might not know they owe their art-drunken joy to the proxy efforts of one Kenneth Goldsmith. Mr. Goldsmith is a ‘conceptual poet’ and exhilarating art-theorist whose efforts push boundaries-freeing information and nurturing thought–the legacy of which we can only begin to grasp. It’s a rare soul who can break down a door and then prove it never existed in the first place. He is one such soul.
The Believer magazine interviewed Mr. Goldsmith for their October 2011 issue. We strongly encourage you to give it a read. It’s gripping.
