On December 17, 1972, Douglas Huebler took ten photographic portraits of the German photographer Bernd Becher. These portraits, together with a written statement, constitute Huebler’s Variable Piece # 101.<\/i> The statement explains how the work was made: Becher was asked to pose, in the following order, as: \u201ca priest, a criminal, a lover, an old man, a policeman, an artist, Bernd Becher, a philosopher, a spy, and a nice guy.\u201d After two months Huebler reordered the original sequence of photographs and sent them to Becher, asking him to \u201cmake the \u2018correct\u2019 associations with the given verbal terms.\u201d Becher’s reordered list of character types is listed on the statement as: \u201c1. Bernd Becher; 2. Nice Guy; 3. Spy; 4. Old man; 5. Artist; 6. Policeman; 7. Priest; 8 Philosopher; 9. Criminal; 10. Lover.\u201d The written statement explains all this. But more than a simple explanation, the statement is also constitutive of the work: \u201cTen photographs and this statement join together to constitute the final form of this piece.\u201d Word and image combine, one playing off the other, to form Variable Piece<\/i> #101.<\/p>\n
