Martin Herbert's \u003ci\u003eThe Uncertainty Principle\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of essays that reveals layers of unknowing and open-endedness within a diversity of contemporary art practices since the 1970s. If a work of art is always completed by the viewer, as Marcel Duchamp put it, then the works considered here equate completion with construction. In navigating us through a succession of artists' approaches, Herbert also discloses how constructed experiences of “not knowing” can lead to deep engagements with a range of specific issues and themes: from history to politics, from epistemology to mortality.\u003cp\u003eMartin Herbert is a writer and critic living in Tunbridge Wells, UK, and Berlin.
