Art World: Whitehot Magazine with Noah Becker

John Baldessari Sings Sol Lewitt (1967)

20 Apr 2021

Description

Baldessari sings Sol LeWitt's thirty-five "Sentences on Conceptual Art" (1969), forcing LeWitt's text into the melodies of well-known tunes, including "The Star-Spangled Banner." In this case Baldessari splits language from written form, once again embracing a simple didactic structure that is contradicted from within.
