Repository (Orange/Blue); and Repository (Red/Green)
Two white ceramic multiples feature sprayed glaze surfaces in bold contrasting color combinations of orange and blue, and red and green, overlaid with text applied through a screen glaze process. Baldessari, a pioneering conceptual artist known for merging language and image, uses these ceramic vessels to explore the tension between object and meaning. The works function as repositories not only in title but in form, containing and presenting text as a material element integral to the piece itself.
