A movement that emerged in the 1960s–1970s, primarily in the United States and Europe, asserting that the idea or concept behind a work is more important than the finished art object. Key figures include Sol LeWitt, Joseph Kosuth, and Yoko Ono. It succeeded Minimalism and pushed further against traditional aesthetics, questioning the very nature and commercialization of art.
