This painting is a small piece of paper with ballpoint pen marks. It's interesting because the title is actually instructions on the other side. The artist likely wanted to challenge ideas about what art should be, and this simple work does that in a clever way. You can learn more about this kind of experimental art by looking at the work of artist Henry Flynt.
