“The idea was to take fine art and put it into the location of the movie scripts. The script itself is collage - some of the lines come from actual movies and I've written others to make the text work with the found image. In this way, the details of old dead guys' paintings (from the collection of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, where this work will be exhibited in relation to the historical paintings) become illustrations of the movie scripts. I found this mélange of high art and Hollywood amusing.” WayArtIdeasGuyFoundLinesWrittenPaintingFineHollywoodRelationHistoricalScriptsDetailsCollectionsMuseumsLocationAmusingFine ArtsIllustrationCollagesHigh ArtFrankfurt Author:John Baldessari
