Daniël Dennis de Wit in an almost mysophobic act has erased parts of the content of Robert Rauschenberg his semi-readymade work in photoshop. Which in itself is a work Rauschenberg where he erased a drawing of Willem de Kooning (1953). Not as much as a study into the notion of 'the original' but much more as an experiment into nested ideas as well as an investigation into what exactly defines emptyness.
