"One day I found a rusty tin box which was hermetically sealed. The box contained something that I couldn't identify as I was incapable of opening it. That day, the beauty of ignoring the contents crystallized in the creation of my mystery boxes." Ben Vautier (Tout Ben, Éditions du Chêne, Paris, 1974, p. 29).
