It covers his photo-based works such as the \"Strobe,\" \"Word Chain,\" and \"Pathetic Fallacy\" series from 1975; the \"Violent Space\" and the seminal \"Concerning Diachronic\/Synchronic Time: Above, On, Under (With Mermaid),\" from 1976; and the \"Blasted Allegories\" series from 1977-78, which drew heavily from the artist's vast collection of photo stills taken from commercial television.\u003cp\u003eIn the 1980s, Baldessari's art took a different direction, beginning with the expansive \"Fugitive Essays\" triptychs from 1980 and leading to 1982's photographic interpretations of Grimm's Fairy Tales. Building on these themes, Baldessari began producing a body of work that was inspired in part by dreams, psychology, film, and popular culture. Ensuing works were more formal, elaborate, and large-scale. From 1984 to 1986 Baldessari created a number of works that employed his soon-to-be-signature colored discs painted over people's faces in the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn introductory essay will provide a close reading of selected works and a historical context for understanding Baldessari's art from this period.
