JOHN BALDESSARI

Santa Monica

July 1997

I think of Martin often for on my studio wall there is an announcement with a photo of him standing inside of an upended couch, and I have just seen his portable metro station (locked). "Martin, I wish you were still around, making us think and laugh and setting an example by seemingly having so much fun doing art."
He was infectious, and I shall miss him enormously.
