John Baldessari #8

John Baldessari: Color Corrected Studio (with Window), 1972-1973.

"'Color Corrected Studio' from 1972/1973 consists of three photographs that all show the same view of John Baldessari’s studio in Santa Monica. The three photos are very different. The first is a simple photo. The second exhibits geometric colour markings which the artist painted directly onto its surface. This picture served, in turn, as the template for actually colouring the work space. The title—"Color Corrected Studio"—is an indication of this process. The third photograph shows the room after it has been painted.
