on kawara.today series these are my favorite conceptual paintings. learn more here. on has been painting one of these everyday since january 4th 1966 and doesn’t plan to stop until his death. I am lucky enough to have seen these at both dia: beacon and moma, including the moma copy of the logbook ‘one hundred year calendar’ in which he keeps a swatch of the paint color from each date. this is mindfulness and commitment to an idea. a great inspiration. incidentally there is a screensaver for macs based on this. get it here.
