Education ARTIST TALK JOHN BALDESSARI TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2003, 7 PM $6 ($4 WALKER MEMBERS) AUDITORIUM 
|
Although he began his career as a painter, John Baldessari turned to photography
in the 1960s in order to challenge the conventions of traditional artistic
media. As an early entrant into the field of appropriation, he began to
construct a series of photo-based works taken from stills of Hollywood
films. His work has since expanded to include projects in film, video,
and installation. Join Baldessari as he discusses his artistic practice.
The exhibition The
Last Picture Show: Artists Using Photography, 1960-1982, includes
a number of Baldessari's works.
THIS LECTURE WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY GENEROUS SUPPORT FROM
