John Cage
John Cage's most famous musical compositionis called 4'33".
It consists of the pianist going to the piano, and
not hitting any keys for four minutes and thirty-three seconds. (He uses a stopwatch to timethis.)
The entire piece consists of silences -- silences
of different lengths, they say. What you hearwhen you listen to 4'33" is a
matter of chance.

Bed, 1955Painting relates to both
art and life I try to actin the gap between the
two. A pair of socks is
no less suitable tomake a painting with
than wood, nails,
turpentine, oil, andfabric.

Expressionism Abstract Expressionism A movement whichis abstract (emphasizing shape, colour, and line,with little recognizable subject matter) and
expressive (stressing emotion and individualfeeling).
Action Painting The painting is a record of the
process of the pictures creation, reflecting the whole of
the artists physical and mental being. The viewer is meant to be aware of the process; it is
important to imagine the artist in the act of creation.

The subject involves a glut ofmessages and images
" I was bombarded with TV sets
and magazines, by the refuse, bythe excesses of the world... Ithought that if I could paint ormake an honest work , it shouldincorporate all of these elements,which were and are a reality."
Relates to the way images areseen, channel changing,translated into a still image
placed side by side, and still , therelationships seem more chaotic &
surreal. Red patch - stroboscopic photo of
Duchamp's Nude DescendingStaircase from Life Magazine.

Begs questions: Is it a flag? Is it a painting of a flag? Both? Is it art?
Provocative - gives viewer cause to reflect - tests imaginative capacity ofthe viewer
Flag traditionally shown in action, symbol of nationalism, identity, and power
here its flat Transforms an object highly resistant to aesthetic consideration.
