More than 120 works, including two huge canvases commissioned for the exhibition, are included in a retrospective of legendary American artist John Baldessari at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. The show, “John Baldessari: Pure Beauty” includes works dating back to 1962. The two new 25-foot works “Brain/Cloud,” which features a giant cloud-like brain floating in a blue background, and “Palm Tree/Seascape,” a canvas showing a palm tree jutting up in front of an expanse of ocean, hang in the lobby of the museum, created specifically for the New York show.
