1000 Hours of Stare (Rationalized Tom Friedman)
One thousand A4 papers, stared at for one hour, June 3, 2010.
The Tributes is a growing series of loving, but somewhat humorous remakes of classic works of art by artists like John Baldessari, Bas Jan Ader, Douglas Gordon and more. Conny Blom remakes pieces that have inspired and motivated him in his own artistic practice, in a light-hearted manner, using the simplest of means. As the title suggests, the series is paying respects to the original works, even if it might happen that the essence of the pieces gets misplaced in the process.
