Q1: lewitt's work and conceptual art in general is supposed to be entirely focused on the mind, the idea behind the work. however, there still seems to be an inherent dependency on visual stimuli being presented in works of conceptual art. it seems to have equal weight and focus on the idea and thought process that the viewer needs to take in order to complete or interpret the work.
Q2: conceptual art and minimalism both are reducing art to its basic elements. conceptual art seems to be more centered around stripping things away to the basic ideas, while minimalism involves focusing on basic elements and materials (and the ideas behind those man-made industrial materials). is that their only difference?
