SFMOMA’s Nam June Paik Retrospective Shows 200 Iconic Works

SFMOMA’s “Nam June Paik” presents 200 works by the pioneering video and installation artist in a major retrospective. It takes a show of this scale to weigh Paik’s influence on media art, and key works like TV Chair (1968), TV Garden (1974, image), and Sistine Chapel (1993) are included. The middle work of that trio “epitomizes one of Paik’s great strengths,” says co-curator Andrea Nitsche-Krupp, “the ability to revisit, permutate, and recombine ideas, images, and concepts into newly generative work.”
