John Baldessari

1 One person copies or makes up random captions. Another person takes photos. Match photos to captions. 2 Defenestrate objects. Photo them in midair. Photograph backs of things, underneaths of things, extreme foreshortenings, uncharacteristic views. Or trace them. 3 Repaired or patched art. Recycled. Find something broken and discarded. Perhaps in a thrift store. Mend it. 4 Imitate Baldessari in actions and speech. Punishment: Write I will not make any more art, I will not make any more boring art, I will make good art (or something similar) 1000 times on wall. (Apparently, Baldessari punished himself. )
