John Baldessari (1931-2020)

1990 | Vinyl and acrylic on colour photographs | 245 x 153 cm
To John Baldessari, a photograph is not necessarily a lie – but it’s not the truth either.
Baldessari seeks to educate us with his work. In fact, some of his pieces even tell the viewer what to look at. In Pink Shape over Enraptured Figure, however, he creates a whole collage of interesting images and then deliberately blocks our view.
