Once, the public and the artists are all on bookshelves.

Willfully there is no clear difference.
»If a Manifesto« is an experimental publication based on Allan Kaprow’s Manifesto, from 1966. The original published pages were taken from Essays on The Blurring of Art and Life, by Allan Kaprow, edited by Mike Kelley, University of California Press, 1993.
