Episode 2000 | Sol LeWitt’s Wall Drawings: Concept Over Creation

In this short podcast episode, we explore the fascinating world of conceptual art through the lens of Sol LeWitt’s wall drawings and the ongoing debate about authenticity, authorship, and originality. Using the case study of a major LeWitt piece owned by the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh, we unpack what it means to “move” a work of art that exists primarily as an idea. Can a redrawn wall drawing still be considered the same artwork? What happens when someone follows LeWitt’s instructions without his approval? Join us as we question everything—from the role of artistic intent to the value of replication in conceptual art.
