satirical checklists of what to include in a painting if it is to sell and became interested in
contemporary arts. He was known as the father of conceptual art and shaped the conceptual art

canvas. Because of John Baldassari many artist became more interested in art, increase their
passion and upgrade their skills in art in modern period

artists to take up new modes of art-making, whether in the form of absurdist performances or
photo-based works about pictures themselves. He wants to address on us to appreciate the beauty
