TV Tulips (Computerized One Hundred Flowers), 1998
From Wall Works
Inkjet prints, 100 different images, 32 x 42 cm (12½ x 16½ in) each, on paper rolls, affixed to the wall, and antique television console. TVs vary in model and dimensions, installation size according to the wall. Limited to 15 installations, with a signed and numbered certificate.
This large-scale edition is one of two related works Nam June Paik created for the Wall Works project. Both installations require for a wall to be fully covered in the artist’s computer-generated prints, affixed in rows and random sequence. This work additionally includes an antique wooden TV console, which is to be placed in front of the wallpapered wall and tuned to any broadcast channel.
Both works are part of the collection of the Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin.
