1. While our focus this week is on Identity Politics, it would be remiss of us to overlook the work of well-known contemporary artists Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst. Briefly address how one of these artists brought together some of the strategies and aesthetics associated with both Dada and Minimalism in the creation of New Hoover Quadraflex, New Hoover Convertible, Hoover Dimension 900, New Hoover Dimension 1000, 1981-86 (Figure 26.2) or The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living, 1991 (Figure 26.6).
