  • Art21 proudly presents an artist segment, featuring John Baldessari, from the "Systems" episode in Season 5 of the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series.
    "Systems" premiered in October 2009 on PBS.
    Throughout a segment that features over fifty pieces, including works in the inaugural exhibition of the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at LACMA, John Baldessari assails conventional wisdom about art and meaning. In an installation at Museum Haus Lange in Krefeld, Germany, Baldessari humorously reconfigures an entire brick building by noted architect Mies van der Rohe. “Aesthetically, I always look for the weak link in the chain,” he says.
    John Baldessari was born in National City, California, in 1931. Learn more about the artist at: art21.org/artist/john-baldessari

    My favorite "conceptual" artists of all time. We don't need suffering. Humor is better. That's why I like LA artists.

    John- Art doesn’t necessarily heal external wounds. It has the possibility to heal internal maladies. Spiritual , emotional , mental, contextual, or existential.issues. It has the power to inform, illustrate, illuminate. The need of art has many elements but the overriding element is it needs a connection or communication to human emotions and feelings.

    When an “artist” becomes a fixture in the “artistic” discourse anything they do do becomes “art” if they say it is . . . . personally I never thought of Baldessari as much of an “artist”. 😑

    John because you say it is …..does not make it Art. You would serve the argumentment by describing what art…is not.

      Nah art is anything and everything and nothing all at the same time. If someone calls it art then it is art. You don't have to agree or like it.

    Get rid of the elitist , esoteric obfuscating speech. Does your work connect to human experience? Does it inform, Illustrate, teach us something about anything? I, for one don’t think much of it. And don’t give me the importance of “ the space between” and words matter. Communication. Remember. ?

      It doesn't have to do any of those things to be art.

      I didn't find any of his speech to be esoteric or elitist (though, presumably, that makes me esoteric and elitist). I connected to many of the things he was explaining his work was about-how art is about choices (color, placement, absence), about the replaceability of the people in manufactured photo ops-though maybe I'm partial to some artists that seek to deconstruct what we pretend to "know" is art.
