Art: the more-is-better crowd

 Art is math. Some artists add, some subtract. The rest multiply.

Among the multipliers:

Tara Donovan Toothpicks

Bradd Skubinna

Mark Menjivar

Louise Bourgeois

Jason Rhoades

Annette Messager at the Pompidou

Josh Faught

Mandy Greer

Finally, the greatest example of simultaneous addition and subtraction in contemporary art, David Hammons‘ Bliz-aard Ball Sale on Cooper Square in NYC, 1983.
