| On Kawara, born in 1933 in the Aichi Prefecture of Japan, is a
conceptual artist who sends postcards to friends with "I am still
alive" written on them. This is only one of his art forms.
Earlier in his career he exhibited telegrams. Since the
mid-1960s, Kawara has painted two thousand "date paintings," each
comprised of its date of completion stenciled in white on black.
There is nothing else on the painting. He paints four or five
layers of dark paint (showing 500 of 1391 characters). |
