Happy Birthday, John Baldessari! May your day be as delightfully unexpected and cleverly juxtaposed as the brilliant multimedia masterpieces you've gifted us. Your art has graced MoMA, Guggenheim, and The Broad—proving once again that combining images with witty language is not just conceptual genius but also a fantastic way to confuse museum-goers into deep thought.Here's hoping this year brings you even more success (and fewer people asking what exactly "conceptual" means). Keep inspiring us all by turning everyday visuals into extraordinary conversations—and remember: never stop putting dots on faces; it's timelessly hilarious. Cheers to another masterpiece-filled trip around the sun!
