QUOTE- Jean Tinguely
'In his 1959 Manifesto For Statics Tinguely exhorted his fellow artists to "stop painting time. Cease building cathedrals and pyramids that crumble away like sugar decorations. Breathe deeply, live in the now, live on and in time. For a beautiful and absolute reality." He then abridged his manifesto, had 150,000 copies printed and dropped them from airplanee over Dusseldorf.'
