Windows #2 by Martin Beck

The second installment of a series of window display shows.

The English and the Americans are just about the only people who’ve set conjunctions free, by thinking about relations. But when you see relational judgments as autonomous, you realize that they creep in everywhere, they invade and ruin everything: AND isn’t even a specific conjunction or relations, it brings in all relations, there are as many relations as ANDS, AND doesn’t just upset all relations, it upsets being, the verb…and so on. (Gilles Deleuze, "Three Questions on Six Times Two” in Negotiations: 1972-1990)
