John Baldessari is one of the major figures in contemporary art in this time, he is sometimes nicknamed as the ''father of contemporary art'' because of this Baldessari was listed as one of the most influential artist to emerge since the mid 1960s.John Baldessari is a very respected artist, he has created some very famous pieces of work that we see today.He made a promise that he would never make boring art work again.
In one of my recent lessons my teacher showed us a picture of one of John Baldessari's work entitled 'wrong'. And he asked us to look at it and suggest why it might be called wrong. |

Here are some that I thought were wrongly taken:
For example some said:
- Has no colour very simple
- Quite boring
- There is nothing wrong with the image
- Unfocused and boring
- Pointless
- Set in a random place and doesn't have a lot of quality
- No purpose of the picture
- It's depressing
- Dull and gloomy
- Featureless and deserted
Here are some that I thought were wrongly taken:
This image here is wrong in countless ways,for example you dont know what the image to being with and its very blurry and out of focus.I took this image by going really close to the our school polo shirts so that it could be unfocused.You also have no idea what it is to start with.
In this image I took a picture of my partner however,I only took it of half her body.This image would be called wrong for many reasons, one being because we can't see the persons face which also makes people inquistive and have them wondering who the person is.
