Flavin p22 — use of cans — ritual objects — works made the same day —

objects

ASIDE
on Flavin use of scrolls in early works — a digital work could be in scroll format

PAINT
the garage door — black with color highlights
<drawing>

PAINT WITH OBJECT
USE GRAIN OF PLYWOOD
some random thoughts of art with doors — opening one door with another behind it — on and on

VIDEO — using that idea — one object moving out of the way and revealing another
— when the detail is lost switch images — (hard to write this idea)
—
maybe bring one image to a large pixel field than start another as large pixels and ‘ZOOM’ out to the image —

LIGHT — LIGHT BULBS
the mute quality of dead bulbs —
fluorescent art that turns into a different work as the bulbs die —
not replacing the bulbs —

FLAVIN p29 (mid) — “substance over image”
“redefined painting as fact rather than fiction”
what art is fictional — is the myth of the artist a fiction — the ‘expressionism’ of abstract expressionism?
—
spend more time at the Flavin building next time i go to Houston
maybe another trip to marfa sometime
