Throwing three balls in the air to get a straight line (best of thirty-six attempts), 1973

The set of 12 colour offset lithographs was conceived on occasion of John Baldessari’s first solo exhibition in Italy in 1973.

It is one of a few only photographic works and beautifully visualizes the artists experimental approach to conceptual art, also in relation to his teachings at CalArts Institute in California until 1986.
