Lot Essay

"I like to think that all my work has some sort of aura of originality. Are these more original? I dont know. What I was interested in the earlier work and what I continue to be interested in is what it means to be original. Its not that I dont think there is such a thing as originality. Im interested in sameness - what does it mean for two things to be identical, or not."
S. Levine quoted in Sherrie Levine, exh. cat., Kunsthalle Zürich, Zurich 1991-1992, p. 18.
