In this three-screen performance Blue, Red, Yellow, the artist “paints” or obscures the television static that commonly appeared on sets when stations were not broadcasting. When it was created, this work suggested the potential of the screen as a new means for making art. Today, his action may also reflect the sentiments of those who would like relief from the relentless presence in our culture of screens large and small and from perpetual connectivity.
