January's theme: sculpture
NAM JUNE PAIK (1932 – 2006) “Watchdog II”, 1997. Private collection.
Hailed as “the father of video art”, Nam June Paik was a true visionary who incorporated music, performance, technology and film into his artistic practice.
#arthistory #art #sculpture #NamJunePaik
Nam June Paik recognized, at an early stage, the possibilities of mass media and emerging technologies and predicted the impact of global networking through communications before the internet was a thing. Born in Korea, he settled in the United States in 1964 after spending time in Japan (where he trained as a classical musician) and West Germany; his travels, and the connections he made with a wide variety of artists, gave him a uniquely transcultural mindset. But it was a fascination with technology that drove his art. He was an important part of the influential neo-Dada avant-garde group Fluxus that gave him worldwide exposure. “Watchdog II” is one of his “robot” pieces with multiple color television sets (13 in all) of various sizes fixed to an aluminum framework in the shape of a dog. The tv sets play a closed-circuit video loop with images of dogs. The dog’s tail has a surveillance camera at the end and its ears are made of loud speakers. Paik’s creations are entertaining and exhibit his sense of humor; they are also visionary and prescient in their predictions for the future of art.

Pioneers of 20th-century #videoart, #NamJunePaik (1932–2006) and #JoanJonas once lived only a courtyard away from each other's windows in #SoHo, #NewYork, while Paik was still alive. Two decades later, the two have seemingly met once again in #Korea at the Nam June Paik Art Center.

First time in #Lich since my birth to watch this #documentary about #NamJunePaik at #KinoTraumstern. It's arts, so this is doomed to be an empty affair, I guess ... grandfilm.de/nam-june-pai... #artsky #videoart
Rows of empty seats in front of a theater's stage, the screen still closed behind a red curtain.

My youngest went to a screening of “The Man Who Fell to Earth” with a Q&A w Candy Clark. Told her to be on the lookout for one of my favorite scenes, the multiple TV screens, it was a homage to my first video artist love, Nam June Paik.

In Bed with the Masters (Nam June Paik)

#IBWTM #NamJunePaik #videoart #electronicdreams #glitchbedroom #datastreamnap #neonsleep #mediaaesthetic #catandcircuitry

IBWTM is a series where one man and his cat pay homage to a different iconic artist each time. One bed. Infinite brushstrokes.
A person sleeps peacefully in bed while glowing blue grids and data-like projections cover the wall and their body. Their cat rests beside them, partially illuminated by the digital patterns. The scene is bathed in cool, ambient lighting, evoking a futuristic media installation.
