Untitled
Untitled displays a triangular composition with three points of “Saturn,” “Venus,” and “Mars.” In his texts and scores, Nam June Paik occasionally mentioned planets: “The heavenly stars (Mars, Saturn, Altair, Vega, etc.) meet periodically, but the earthly ones do so very rarely.” “Play the Beethoven’s Great Fugue, op. 133 / the first violin on the Earth / the second violin on the Moon / alto on the Venus / the cello on the Mars.”
